Hereward, the Last of the English is a historical novel by Charles Kingsley, first published in 1865. The story follows Hereward, an Anglo-Danish nobleman and warrior, as he becomes an outlaw in the wake of the Norman Conquest of England. The novel explores themes of rebellion and defiance against authority, illustrated through Hereward's interactions with his mother, Lady Godiva, and his struggles in a rapidly changing society.
