       Alfred the Great. 
520    Alfred's life as monarch was to be a struggle against the 
       great Danish forces that sought the permanent foreign 
       occupation of half of England. His greatness stemmed from 
       his success as a general, and his ability to gain 
       knowledge from the experience of others.
