Macmillan, NY, 1st edition. Hardcover. Near Fine . "It has been said: 'From 782 till Alcuin's death in 804 there is hardly a diplomatic act of the great King, Charlemagne, hardly a controversy in the Church, hardly a project of social reorganization and no plan of educational reform in what was to become the Holy Roman Empire, on which the English scholar Alcuin did not leave the impress of his personality.' Yet there has been no full-length biography of Alcuin in English published since 1922 [until this biography published in 1951.]"" [Dust Jacket] 1ST EDITION.
