Sweeping through fifteen centuries of life in the heart of southern England, this epic novel records the lives of the ordinary folk of Britain from the end of the Roman occupation through to the late
16th century. The author has brought to life a colourful range of characters, from serfs to kings, from slave girls to bishops and from honest working families to murderers, to illustrate what it must have been like to live through some of the most challenging periods of English history, including the attacks of the hated Viking marauders, the French defeat of the English at Hastings, the arrival of the despised Norman invaders and the dissolution of the monasteries. The hardship and terrible cruelty our ancestors had to endure are vividly described.

I Am England edition by Patricia Wright Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
If you enjoyed Sarum, you will love I Am England and its sequel, That Near and Distant Place. These books are both fun and easy to read, and a great way to learn more about English history. These books also remind me of Rudyard Kipling's Puck of Pook's Hill and Rewards and Fairies.
A good book about an easily overlooked microcosmic place in the English landscape, and all that transpires there over many centuries from pre-history to Elizabethan times. A dense story unfolds here but not a heavy one. This book should have gotten more critical attention and sales than it did, because it's worthy to be among some of the more well known titles in the fictional history genre.
