520 _a"Historic Tales: The Romance of Reality. Vol. 04 (of 15), English" by Charles Morris is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work covers significant events and figures from English history, weaving fantastic tales of various crucial moments like the Christianization of England, the struggle against the Danes, and the notable reign of King Alfred. Through a blend of fact and storytelling, it immerses readers in the rich tapestry of England’s past, showcasing key historical characters. The opening of the volume recounts the compelling story of how England became Christian, focusing on the pivotal figure of Gregory the Great. It describes Gregory’s initial encounter with English slaves in a Roman market and his subsequent mission to convert the Anglo-Saxons. Following this narrative thread, the text illustrates the early challenges of spreading Christianity in England, revealing Gregory's eventual success through the missionary Augustine, who helps convert King Ethelbert of Kent. The beginning sets the stage for further tales about key figures and events that shaped England's historical landscape, illustrating the interplay between faith, culture, and politics in early English history.
