The Ballad of the White Horse by G.K. Chesterton is an epic poem that tells the story of King Alfred and his battle against the invading Danes. Written in Chesterton’s signature style, the poem is a masterpiece of storytelling, full of vivid imagery and stirring language. The poem is divided into several books, each detailing a different aspect of the battle. We are introduced to King Alfred and his struggle to defend his kingdom against the Danes, and Chesterton paints a vivid picture of a weary and beleaguered monarch. Despite the odds against him, Alfred remains steadfast in his faith and determination to protect his people. As the poem unfolds, we see how Alfred’s unwavering commitment to his cause inspires his troops and leads them to victory.
