Hall of Heroes – Index
From warriors fighting to preserve their tribes from being slaughtered to giants of science and engineering in Victorian times these islands have produced so many remarkable men and women that it would take a lifetime of reading. Every part of the islands has its own hero, from Saxon hero Hereward the Wake in the English Fens to Brian Boru who saved Dublin from the Danes and Owain Glyndŵr the last Welsh prince of Wales, we have a multitude of heroes, leaders and innovators whose work changed the world we live in.
