Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from William, Vol. 12: The Conqueror Of all the men of history who have borne the brand of illegitimacy, there is none more illustrious than William the Conqueror, the son of Robert "the Devil," Duke of Normandy, and Arlotte, the tanner´s daughter, of Falaise. Proud of his son, and confident of his prowess, the duke left him as ruler of Normandy while he made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. The youth at once gave evidence of the genius which was later to gain him the grim title of "Conqueror," by overmatching the barons who fancied that they should have it all their own way with their boy duke. The audacious project of the conquest of England he accomplished with terrible success, and held his subject territory so firmly in his iron grip that Normans and Saxons began to weld into Englishmen beneath the mighty pressure. Whether it be true or not that his physical strength was such that he could draw a bow that none of his subjects could bend, the figure may be accurately applied to his mental powers, and few of his successors on the English throne have been worthy to wear his crown.
