In 1066, over nine short hours, William the Conqueror triumphed at the Battle of Hastings and England was changed forever. Celebrated historian Simon Schama recounts the saga of blood, betrayal and ambition that led up to this pivotal battle and describes the profound consequences that followed. Anglo-Saxon England became Norman and, for the next 300 years, its fate was decided by Norman rulers.
