Produktbeschreibung

An integrated social history of England that spans the conventional divide of the Norman Conquest in 1066.

This book offers fresh views of the most traumatic period of English history when England was conquered twice in fifty years by Danish and Norman kings and when the influx of foreigners caused major ethnic tension in all areas of life: family, town and countryside, court and church.
