In 1066 Saxon England was conquered by invaders from Normandy. The Normans introduced new customs, a new language and the feudal system. The following centuries were years of violence and civil war, which saw Magna Carta and the birth of Parliament, war with Scotland and Wales, the Hundred Years' War with France and a deadly plague from Asia - the Black Death. This book describes the people, events and everyday life of Medieval Britain: the Norman settlement, medieval castles, the Church, trade and industry, guilds and crafts, towns and houses, the War of the Roses and much more.
