Notes: Sutcliff, once again, bringing to life a distant era, here, sixth-century Britain peopled by the rival invading Saxons and indigenous Celts, through the adventures of a boy, Owain, his street urchin friend, Regina, and his dog, the woodcut style of the illustrations highly sympathetic to the novel's subject-matter.
