Cnut the Great (The English Monarchs Series) [Bolton, Timothy] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Cnut the Great (The English Monarchs Series) Review: A good treatment of a difficult subject - The author provides plenty of context about the societies Canute lived, ruled and interacted with. Review: Brief but informative - Given the limitations of sources and the surprising (to me) brevity of the reign, the author has written a very informative history. I was amazed at the original source material the author mastered, much of it fragmentary, to squeeze out his account.
