This influential work focuses on the conflict between Roman and Celtic Christianity, shedding light on an important aspect of England's religious past. It is considered a vital source for understanding Anglo-Saxon history and has five books that cover the period from Julius Caesar to the year of its completion in 731.

He champions his native Northumbria, highlighting its significance in English history, while displaying a strong connection to the Irish as well."
