  1. Archit Mam

    I appreciated the historical context, although the book could be better organized. It’s a bit dense but has valuable insights.

  2. Alakananda Chatterjee

    Enjoyed learning about the saints and abbots. Bede’s writing style is unique but not always easy to follow. Still, a valuable historical document.

  3. Aditya Kumar

    Found it quite informative. Some of the details felt overwhelming. Solidly researched and a good resource for early English history.

  4. Rohan Verma

    Bede’s work provides valuable insight, though it can be a bit repetitive. ‘Voyage of St Brendan’ was my favorite part. Worth the effort!

  5. Purnendu Mondal

    Informative but somewhat dry. The historical details are rich, but the writing style might not appeal to everyone.

  6. Ankit Maurya

    Loved the peek into early Christianity in England and Ireland. A dense read at times, but very informative and rewarding.

  7. Bhavay Chawla

    A fascinating look into the past! The ‘Voyage of St Brendan’ was wild! A little slow-paced, but full of interesting information.

  8. Shivam Raj

    Bede’s writings offer a fascinating glimpse into early medieval England. Some parts were a bit dry, but overall, a worthwhile read for history buffs.

  9. Lakshay Sachan

    Bede’s piety shines through. At times I felt lost in the details, but the overall picture is compelling. An important historical source.

  10. Suramya Dinkar

    A great introduction to Bede! The ‘Life of Cuthbert’ was especially engaging. It dragged a little in the middle, but I enjoyed it overall.

  11. Anmol Singh

    I loved learning about Cuthbert and Brendan! Bede’s style can be dense at times, but the stories are compelling. A must-read for those interested in early Christianity.

  12. Manisha Kumari Gobind Prajapati

    An interesting and informative exploration of the era! Though a little tough to read at times, I learned a lot.

  13. Srinjoy Basak

    Some stories resonated more than others, but overall it’s a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the period. Not always engaging.

  14. Khushwant Sodhi

    I found some parts fascinating, others a bit tedious. ‘Life of Cuthbert’ stood out. Requires patience but worth the effort.

  15. Saurabh Bhandari

    Interesting historical perspective. The language felt archaic at times, making it a bit of a slog to get through. Good content, but challenging to read.

  16. Tanu Singh

    Bede’s accounts are remarkable. ‘Voyage of St Brendan’ was truly unique. A bit slow-moving, but very insightful.
