The Ecclesiastical History of the English Nation (and Lives of Saints and Bishops)
- Saint Bede (author)
- Vida Dutton Scudder (translator)
The Venerable Saint Bede was an important Anglo-Saxon theologian and historian. He is generally best remembered for his Ecclesiastical History of the English Nation, a work considered to be one of the best sources for early English history. Although his work often concerned miracles and other divine matters, Bede was careful to analyze his sources and consider their historical validity.
