Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the history of Oxford as you have never encountered it before. The first historical record of Oxford laments that the city has been burnt to the ground by Vikings. Its religious houses were founded by a woman who blinded her would-be attacker. Its students were poverty-stricken desperados in perpetual armed conflict with the townsmen.

With a mangled skeleton in every cupboard, this is the real story of the Oxford. Read it if you dare!
