Written in the 8th century, "The Ecclesiastical History of the English People" by Saint Bede is one of the most important sources for the early ecclesiastical history of England. The book covers the period from Julius Caesar's invasion of Britain to the early 8th century and provides a detailed account of the establishment and growth of Christianity in England. This edition of the book also includes "The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle," a historical record of Anglo-Saxon England from the 5th to the 12th century. These two texts are an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the early history of England.
