About This Novel
This book is the representative work of Professor Edward Augustus Freeman, a famous British historian. It takes Duke William of Normandy to lead an army to attack England, win the decisive victory at the Battle of Hastings, and seize the throne of England as the main line. It unveils the mystery of the Frenchization of the Normans and the Normanization of the English. Why was the Duke of Normandy called William the Bastard? William was a concubine, so why did he eventually become the Duke of Normandy? As the suzerain of the Principality of Normandy, why is the King of France afraid of William, Duke of Normandy? Is William, Duke of Normandy's claim to the English throne legitimate? Why were the Norman nobles willing to follow William, Duke of Normandy, on his cross-sea expedition to England? How did William, Duke of Normandy, become the Kingdom of England and change the geopolitics of Western Europe? This book will explain it in detail. The book was first published in 1880.
