The Last Great Anglo-Saxon Queen - Was She Significant? | Edith of Wessex

Edith of Wessex was the last Anglo-Saxon queen, as the wife of Edward the Confessor. While her part in events is overshadowed by the louder and flashier battles, deaths and men who became kings, Edith was a quiet manipulator behind the scenes. She didn't just live through one of the most turbulent times in medieval English history, she shaped it and actively ensured her own place in history, as well as her family's place. This video takes a deeper look at Edith, and explores how her legacy ties directly into the conquest of England in 1066...
