About This Novel
After the establishment of the Kingdom of Sicily, it was once a powerful country in the Mediterranean region. It profoundly affected the political situation in Italy and even sent troops to fight overseas. The kingdom prospered in an atmosphere of tolerance. However, the Norman dynasty only lasted for about 60 years, and finally perished in tragic circumstances. This book tells the history of the Norman dynasty from its establishment to its demise, vividly describes its interaction with Germany, the Papal State, Byzantium, the Crusaders and other forces, and shows how a prosperous medieval kingdom gradually perished amid internal and external troubles. The author writes in a popular, humorous and slightly pitiful style, allowing readers to feel not only the glorious achievements of the Norman dynasty, but also the bitterness and helplessness in the decline process.
