That Hated Saxon is a historical novel written by Violet Greville and published in 1894. The story is set in England during the time of King John's reign in the early 13th century. The book follows the life of a young Saxon girl named Edith, who is forced to flee her home after her father is accused of treason and executed. Edith is taken in by a group of rebels who are fighting against the Norman conquerors and their oppressive rule. She becomes a skilled archer and warrior, and eventually falls in love with one of the rebel leaders, a man named Richard. However, their love is threatened by the ongoing conflict between the Saxons and the Normans, as well as by the personal vendettas and political intrigue of the various characters in the story. Throughout the book, Greville explores themes of love, loyalty, betrayal, and the struggle for freedom and justice in a time of oppression and violence. That Hated Saxon is a gripping and dramatic tale that offers a vivid portrayal of life in medieval England and the complex relationships between the different social and ethnic groups of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
