Manage episode 386105725 series 3090962
1066 is one of the most famous years in history. It established the Norman duke, now known as William the Conqueror, as king of England. But it was hardly as simple as winning at the Battle of Hastings. Don Hollway, the author of “Battle for the Island Kingdom,” joins the podcast to discuss how the Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, Normans, and others fought for the English throne over the decades and centuries. Hollway guides us through this violent era, the betrayals, the murders, the marriages, the mayhem, and how the Church and the belief in divine destiny helped establish the throne.
