Overview

From the crowning of Wiliam the Conqueror on Christmas Day in 1066 to his death in 1087, this thorough little history delves into all the cultural and political aspects of the Norman Conquest. The author, a leading scholar on Anglo-Saxon history, explores the turbulent background to King Harold's brief reign, the legitimacy of William's claim and the improbability of his success, and shows how England, the Vikings and the Normans continued to struggle until 1087.
