A biography of England's 'lost king' Harold Godwinson, an astute political operator who as Earl of Wessex won the affection of the English people and the death-bed nomination from Edward the Confessor (king of England 1041-1066) to succeed him. It tells the story of the formidable warrior-king killed in battle in defence of his kingdom.
