Synopsis

Drawing on William the Conqueror's eleventh-century survey of England the author traces the roots of English culture and history, from first-century Roman occupation to the beginning of the English Renaissance in the fifteenth century

Reviews

$24.95. hist Late to reach these shores is one of the best among the popular histories observing the 900th anniversary of Domesday Book, the great survey of English land and people made in 1086 for William the Conqueror. Wood's book stems from his BBC television series of the same name, soon to be aired here, and partakes of that medium's analytical fuzziness and gripping immediacy. The content and production of the original Domesday book provide the basis for a wide-ranging exploration of the culture's origins. Recommended for public libraries. Richard C. Hoffmann, York Univ., North York, Ontario
