Summary

From Vikings to Conquerors: A Concise History of the Normans

The story of the Normans starts long before 1066. Descended from the Norsemen, they rose to become one of the most formidable warrior groups of the Dark Ages, exerting influence across Europe from the Baltic Sea to Sicily and the edges of Eastern Europe.

Emerging as Viking raiders in the eighth century, the Normans not only reshaped the European landscape but were themselves transformed by their conquests.
