THE KING OF STONEHENGE NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK AND EBOOK FORMATS AT AMAZON

https://www.amazon.com/King-Stonehenge-Modred-Defense-Britain/dp/1724334190/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1532966235&sr=1-1&keywords=the+king+of+stonehenge


Most people know at least something about the famous Arthur of Britain. While they may not be able to recount his legend in any great detail, they will have passing familiarity with the concept of the Round Table and its knights, of Excalibur, of the Lady of the Lake, of the fateful and illicit love of Lancelot and Guinevere, of Merlin and the Holy Grail and, lastly, of Mordred, the incestuous son of the king and his sister who brought a tragic end to the shining dream that was Camelot. In this follow-up study to THE BEAR KING: ARTHUR AND THE IRISH IN WALES AND SOUTHERN ENGLAND, the author seeks to penetrate the veil of the Dark Ages in an attempt to produce a viable historical candidate for Mordred - or Modred, as he was more anciently known. In the process, a new chapter in Arthurian story will be written, and a much vilified character will be restored to his rightful role as a hero who gave his life to defend his kingdom from foreign invaders.

LEGEND GIVETH AND HISTORY TAKETH AWAY?


In my chapter of the upcoming book THE KING OF STONEHENGE, I've definitively taken Badon away from Arthur and more or less associated it instead with Modred.

I know, I know (I can hear your screams from here!): "Blasphemy!"  But this is where my latest research has led me.  I would ignore the evidence at my peril.
