The Making of England, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Making of England, Vol. 1 of 2
Britain, and in wmch their political and social life took the form which it still retains. The centuries of administrative organization which stretch from Ecgberht to Edward the First, the age of full national development which extends from Edward's day to our own, only become intelligible to us when we have fully grasped this age of national formation. I cannot but feel, therefore, that it is no slight misfortune that such a period should remain comparatively unknown, and that its struggles, which were in reality the birth-throes of our national life, should be still to most English men, as they were to Milton, mere battles of kites and of crows.
