The Rest Is History
524. Charlemagne: Pagan Killer (Part 2)
Dominic Sandbrook
The Anglo-Saxons remember how they had been converted, which is essentially by the example and the inspiration of holy men, not warriors. Whether it's Irish monks in the north who convert Northumbria, or the missionaries sent from Rome, under Augustine, who founds the Archbishopric in Canterbury. And I think the Anglo-Saxons also have a feeling of kinship with the Saxons.
