This seminal biography draws from a wealth of written and archaeological sources to provide the most detailed accounting to date of the life and accomplishments of a remarkable figure in European history, a forward-thinking warrior-turned-statesman who created a new Anglo-Danish regime through designed internationalism. 410 0$aEnglish monarchs series. 606 $aDanes$zEngland$xHistory 606 $aHISTORY / Medieval$2bisacsh 607 $aGreat Britain$xKings and rulers$vBiography 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yCanute, 1017-1035 615 0$aDanes$xHistory. 615 7$aHISTORY / Medieval. 676 $a942.01/81092 676 $aB 700 $aBolton$b Timothy, $01113652 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162707203321 996 $aCnut the Great$92888034 997 $aUNINA
