Hardback. Condition: Very Good. The year 1066 is one of the most important dates in the history of the Western world: the year William the Conqueror defeated the English at the Battle of Hastings and changed England and the English forever.

Distorted by the biased accounts written by a subjugated people, many believe it was the English who ultimately won the battle, since the Normans became assimilated into the English way of life. Drawing on a wealth of contemporary sources, David Howarth gives us memorable portraits of the kings: Edward the Confessor, Harold of England, William of Normandy, as well as the leading political figures of the time. Howarth describes the English commoners: how they worked, fought, died, and how they perceived the overthrow of their world from their isolated shires.…

DAW Books No. 345; UE1475; PBO: Paperback Original 1st Ed; 7/1979; Printed in Canada; 317 Pages; Tony Roberts painted cover; ** Goodreads; There was only one way to reach Iola where an interstellar distress signal had originated. For Iola belonged to a small group of stars cut off from the rest of the galaxy by the close presence of an all-enveloping black hole. The only way to reach Iola was through that timeless-spaceless cosmic warp. Klaus Heller answered that call. He leapt, clad in a special self-sustaining spacesuit, through the black hole. He returned to the world intact, silent, and secretive. And was found murdered where none could have reached him. Ian Wallace's new novel is a combination of scientific paradox, social innovation, and super detection. Meet Claudine St. Cyr, future sleuth extraordinary, and meet again the mastermind Croyd. Confront with them the murder of a hero, the strange doom of his sister, and the plotted assassination of an entire planet.>>> Cover creasing; spine slant; Size: 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall.
