Bede The Venerable's Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum: The History of the Primitive Church of England.
Nero, succeeding Claudius in the empire, had no courage sufficient to attempt any thing in martial affairs; and therefore, besides the great detriment he occasioned to the state in many other ways, he almost lost Britain; for under him two of the chief cities were then taken and destroyed.
The judge then, astonished at the novelty of so many heavenly miracles, ordered that the persecution should cease immediately, beginning thus to honour the saints for their patience and constancy, in suffering that death by the terrors of which he had expected to have withdrawn them from their adherence to the Christian faith.

THE VENERABLE BEDE, monk of the twin monasteries of Wearmouth and Jarrow and doctor of the Catholic Church, was known throughout the Middle Ages primarily for his Scriptural commentary.
Bede assessed this measure as a vera lex historiae, a true law of history, by which facts are ultimately at the service of (and sometimes changed by) spiritual truth.
Though we may mine the HE for a factual history of early Britain, its author was foremost a priest, and its chief function was the demonstration of a vera lex historiae.

 *Ø*  Wilson's Almanac free daily ezine | The Venerable Bede | Saint Venerable Bede of Northumbria Wearmouth Jarrow
What we know of England before the 8th century is mainly the result of this one man’s writing, especially from his best-known work, Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (History of the English Church and People) which begins “Britannia is an island in the ocean and once was called Albion”.
For all his labours, until his last illness, when a boy scribe named Wilbert was assigned as his amanuensis, he had no assistance: “I am my own secretary; I dictate, I compose, I copy all myself.” In the days of parchment and quill, that alone was a great achievement.
His Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum gives in five books the history of England, ecclesiastical and political, from the time of Caesar to the date of the book’s completion (731).

The Historia is an account of English history from the Anglo-Saxon conquest of the island to Bede's own time, focussing primarily on the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons and the growth of the church in England (as the title suggests).
The Old English version of the Historia dates from the Alfredian period and is one of the works that resulted from Ælfred's program of translation announced in his preface to Gregory's Cura pastoralis.

The title of each work should be judged individually rather than appling a "blanket policy" to works written or titled in another language.
The claim here that Bede invented footnotes seems bizarre to me. I'm pretty certain that his _Historia ecclesiastica_ doesn't contain any, for a start!
And I would have expected to have heard of this, since my professional research relates to Anglo-Saxon history.
