Ballad of the White Horse (Version 2)

In this stirring epic poem, delve into the tale of Alfred the Great as he valiantly defends Christian England against the fierce Viking invaders. The pivotal battle unfolds near a white horse mark etched into a hill, giving the poem its evocative name. G.K. Chesterton interprets this mark not just as a landmark, but as a powerful symbol of the ongoing struggle to preserve the Christian culture and values that Alfred fought so hard to defend. - Summary by Robin Lamb
