King Arthur: The Man Who Conquered Europe by Caleb Howells (English) Paperback B

Description: King Arthur by Caleb Howells New B-format paperback - This book explores a part of the King Arthur story often ignored - his exploits on the continent. By reexamining the evidence, Howell challenges convention and offers a compelling argument that connects the legend with a real historical event involving the invasion and conquest of much of Western Europe. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Who was King Arthur? That question has puzzled researchers for hundreds of years, yet still, no consensus has been reached. However, whether it is concluded that he was a Celtic king or a Roman officer, or something in-between, there is one conclusion that virtually all investigators agree on: he was some kind of war leader who fought against the Saxons in Britain. This is a fair conclusion, but it misses - or ignores - something crucial. In the legends of Arthur, he engages in a monumental campaign into Europe and wages war against the Roman Empire. Few researchers even attempt to offer an explanation for this, most simply dismissing it as fiction. The few theories that have been offered to explain the historical origin of this part of the legend are invariably unconvincing and do not address the scale of Arthurs campaign in the legend. In this book, the historical event behind this legend is revealed. Arthurs enemies are identified as real historical figures. Most importantly, the identity of the man who conquered Europe is discovered and it is shown exactly how he came to be known as King Arthur. Author Biography Caleb Howells is an author from the south coast of England with a passion for discovering the truth behind the legends of King Arthur. He has spent years pursuing his dedicated interest in this topic and in other myths and legends from around the world.
