About this book
: |
 |
|
What made Harold give way to his emotions and bet it
all at Senlac Ridge near Hastings |
|
on Saturday 14 October 1066, changing his nation
forever ? Without the treason of his |
|
brother Tostig, and the exhausting Battle of Stamford
Bridge just days before, Harold's |
|
army would have been a more formidable, perhaps
indomitable force. |
|
Harold and William is a dramatic
reconstruction of the story of two rivals - Harold |
|
Godwinson, Earl of Wessex, and
William the Conqueror, Duke of Normandy - in their |
|
bitter and bloody battle for the
crown and destiny of England. This vivid new history |
|
traces these events through a lively narrative,
making a highly readable account of one of |
|
the most significant turning points in English
history. |
