The two-and-a-half centuries after 1066 were momentous ones in the history of Britain. In 1066 England was conquered for the last time. The Anglo-Saxon ruling class was destroyed and the English became a subject race dominated by a Norman-French dynasty and aristocracy. This book shows how the English domination of the kingdom was by no means a foregone conclusion.
