The White Horse King by Benjamin Merkle

The White Horse King was a very interesting historical book about the life of King Alfred of what is now England. It is rich with history of battle and hard times. If you are interested in learning from the past this book would be a good read for you.

You will like this book if you are very interested in history. This was an interesting account of a king who took his nation to great places through mounting adversity. I found it interesting because there are many things we too can learn from the great kings of the past.

It was impressive to see that this Christian king was given this ability to change and reform a nation. He depended on God and desired that others knew God too. He saw the error of their ways as a nation and went about to correct them and be certain they were on the right path of following God. He studied their past to find the answers. King Alfred lead his people in a way that I wish our own country could learn from. We can learn a great deal from the past. Let us learn from it by reading and studying patterns. King Alfred was a great example of this.
