Of Bede and birds
Last month we looked at the life of Bede (c.673–735), the Anglo-Saxon historian who is best known for his Church History of the English People (Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum).

Why does this historical work – which traces the history of England from the Roman occupation to 731, the year that it was completed, as well as detailing the conversion of the Anglo-Saxon peoples – merit calling Bede a model historian?
