The Norman Conquest recounts the succession crisis of 1066 and the campaigns that brought William, Duke of Normandy, to the English throne. It follows Harold Godwinson’s victory over Harald Hardrada at Stamford Bridge, the rapid march south and the decisive battle at Hastings. The book then examines Norman consolidation through castles, land redistribution and rebellion, showing how conquest reshaped England’s aristocracy, government, Church and links with continental Europe.
