The Norman Conquest is Book of the Month in the May issue of BBC History Magazine, which came out today. Prof Nick Higham writes:
Marc Morris’s new book is an exciting arrival... a strong and often gripping story, developed with enormous verve, a clear sense of direction and considerable confidence... carries the reader on a spirited ride across the subject... a stimulating history which has both some new dimensions and internal coherence... an attractive volume which offers a good, detailed introduction to the subject. Morris is committed to teasing out what he thinks the evidence is saying and he writes well.
