From shortly before AD 800 until the Norman Conquest, England was subject to raids from seafaring peoples from Scandinavia—the Vikings. However, they were not only raiders but also traders and settlers. Using the latest archaeological evidence, the author reassesses the Viking contribution to Late Anglo-Saxon England and examines the creation of the new mixed Anglo-Scandinavian identity.
1066 is perhaps the most important date in English history. The elite Normans themselves brought England much closer to Continental Europe, and brought in novel styles of military training. This title explores their lifestyle and the ways in which they interacted with the Anglo-Saxon English as they changed the face of the country forever.
