New Medieval Books: Early English Queens, 850-1000 - Medievalists.net

A look at queenship in early medieval England, this book focuses on three women: Æthelflæd, Lady of the Mercians, Eadgifu of Wessex, and Ælfthryth, Queen of the English. It examines the nature and role of their authority when it came to ruling England.

Apparently the word for a group of words in old English, was 'word hoard'. That's delightful. I can imagine an imp sitting on their hoard of words, guarding them carefully!
