This book discusses the events leading up to the battle of 1066 and then the concequences that followed the battle. I am not a history buff but this book really kept me interested, definately not your typical history book.

This book covers events and conditions in England the year 1066 and is not limited to covering just the Norman invasion of England by William the Conqueror. The author draws upon 20 main sources dating from 1050-1245, e.g., The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (1066-67), Doomsday Book (1086), other contemporary sources. Readable, informative, rewarding to anyone interested in this period and place.
