Battle of Hastings 1066 by Mk Lawson
This fresh, critical analysis of the Bayeux Tapestry has led to explosive conclusions. The author proves that the figure accepted as Harold being hit in the eye was simply one of the king's bodyguard's throwing a spear.
Blows away mary fundamental assumptions about the Battle of Hastings.. an exciting and indispensable read
M K Lawson brings to life the reality of this paradoxical king: his ruthlessness in the face of his enemies alongside his piety and law-giving nature. He also provides an insight into how a Danish king managed to accommodate himself to an English system of law and order that has resonated through history.
