Book review: Finding Eanswythe
🕑 Added 2021-06-18 11:56:02 +0000 UTCEarlier this year, we revealed the incredible story of a 7th Century Anglo-Saxon saint and princess at the heart of a fascinating and high-tech archaeological investigation. Many patrons called for the associated book to be made available... and so we're delighted it can now be purchased from our official shop here.
To whet your appetite, Dani Wootton provides an exclusive Patreon video review of the book, sharing a bit more detail of what you can expect.

This is a major – and extremely rare – archaeological discovery concerning a pivotal moment in English history that deserves wider recognition. Unfortunately, like so many things, it was overshadowed by the global pandemic.
To help the story reach a wider audience, we are sharing the original interview with the general public this Sunday at 6pm BST. Even if you have already watched the original viewing here on Patreon, please do join us again for the event – like the video, share your comments and help spread the message!
Many thanks and best wishes from the team.

I love watching this show to get a peek at how my ancestors lived before migrating to America.

Thanks for the review Dani! I loved that story indeed.

Very interesting. I would like to get a copy, But shipping across the pond is almost 4 times the cost of the book.

Wow! Dani! Nice background! Is this a hint about a future dig site? Great book review Dani! Hmm, are there rumors of unusual things happening on dig sites? I mean a dig involving a Princess Saint surely deserves some miraculous occurrences, or perfectly timed serendipitous events? For example; I worked in an old library as a staff member and we had a set of supposed ghosts inhabiting the building … one day I went back into the supply room to get something. The item was on a top shelf, high enough that I needed a step ladder to reach it. As I was standing there thinking this, the item I was after fell off the shelf right into my hands! It didn’t just fall … it slid out horizontally and then dropped…

Sounded fascinating..put it in my shopping cart, along with another book...and it only gave me the other book--don't tell me it's sold out already?
I visited the church last month where the relics are. Fascinating. Had a lovely chat with a local historian and visited where the pond for the priory is. I’d never have gone there if it wasn’t for listening to the community project through Time Team so thanks and looking forward to the book I’ve just ordered.😊😊
