From the Battle of Hastings to the Wars of the Roses, this book tells the unique history of Britain during the Middle Ages.

How did William the Conqueror become King of England? And how did that change things in Wales and Scotland? What was the Domesday Book all about? Just why did the peasants revolt? It's all here.

Discover a time of murder, mayhem and merrymaking as you read all about the lives (and some untimely deaths) of kings, queens, priests and peasants in Medieval Britain.

The whole, rich history is brought to life with illustrations, photographs, maps, family trees and detailed reconstructions.
