Summary

"This edition provides not only the authoritative Colgrave translation of the Ecclesiastical History, but also a new translation of the Greater Chronicle, in which Bede examines the Roman Empire and contemporary Europe. His Letter to Egbert gives his final reflections on the English Church just before his death, and all three texts are further illuminated by a detailed introduction and explanatory notes."--Back cover.
