SECRETS OF THE NORMAN INVASION BOOK
Just wondered if any of you have purchased and read the above book by Nick Austin. I found it a fascinating read..the author has put in a phenominal amount of research into it and all this seems to amount to finding the correct landing site of the Normans and also the correct battle site at Crowhurst.It would be great if all this gets confirmed by archaelogical surveys, finds etc.
For those who haven't read the book yet you should try and get hold of one and see what you think. Brilliant!

Re: SECRETS OF THE NORMAN INVASION BOOK
Hi,
If anyone wants to read up on the Battle of Hastings in general and in particular about the Duke in question, one should read, David C. Douglas's book, 'WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR' which is part of the English Monarchs series or you can read my novel, 'BELLÊME The Norman Warrior' which is on sale at Amazon as an ebook and soon to be published as a paperback. But Douglas does give you a very detailed build up to the Norman invasion and the after effects on the English nation and of course the 'Harrying of the North.'
I hope this information is of use.

Re: SECRETS OF THE NORMAN INVASION BOOK
Hmmm, such new users with 3 or less posts?
I wonder if "Kev"/Nick is boosting his own book with duplicate members here?
Other sites have noticed this, too.
Odd how old posts are ignored?

I fully endorse RStedall.Douglas'book is the definitive work.He is objective and never fails to encompass all points of view.
