Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book draws from a late 11th century tapestry to recount the Norman conquest of England in 1066, beginning with King Edward the Confessor's fateful decision to name William Duke of Normandy as his successor. When Edward dies, Harold Godwinson, a powerful English earl, seizes the throne for himself, despite having sworn allegiance to William. Upon hearing this, William gathers an army and sails to England, leading to the Battle of Hastings where King Harold is defeated and killed. The tapestry offers a unique narrative of the events leading to and including the battle, providing insight into the political and military strategies of the time, while shedding light on the intertwining personal relationships and complex dynamics between the key players involved. The narrative serves as a reminder of the fragility of power, the strength of ambition, and the devastating consequences of broken promises. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780428064907_0
