Excerpt from Norman Britain This little book does not profess to be a history of events. In a series of short essays, treating facts rather as illustrations than as invested with any inde pendent importance, I have endeavoured to describe how the Teutonic Northmen were brought under Romance influences before they conquered our Teu tonic land and, considering the Norman period as a crisis in the long story of our people, when a Romance element was violently introduced into the population itself and into every phase of its life, to show how this foreign element, overwhelming as it seemed at the time, consummated many changes already in progress, preserved much, destroyed little, and made no violent break in our history. I have also tried here and there, as my space would allow, to point out some of the effects of the Norman rule on our later history, both as to what we have kept and as to what we have cast aside as hindrances to our national development. As Mr. Freeman, besides his great works on the Norman Conquest and on the reign of William Rufus, has also published a hand book of the Norman period, it may seem that in writing this volume I have been fishing in his waters. It was, however, at his request, and with his generous invitation to me to make use of all he had written, that I undertook to attempt the subject that he has made his own. Such as my work is, it will, I how, be evident that it has not been done without some familiarity with original authorities acquired not for this occasion only. References to most of the authorities I have used will be found in the foot notes. Since the publication of the Introduction to English History by Professor S. R. Gardiner and Mr. J. B. Mullinger, brief notices of these authorities are no longer wanted, and for any longer account of them I have no space.

Excerpt from The Normans in England: 1066-1154 Our belief is that the books may profitably be used by all grades of historical students between the standards of fourth form boys in secondary schools and undergraduates at Univer sities. What differentiates students at one extreme from those at the other is not so much the kind of subject-matter dealt with, as the amount they can read into or extract from it.

Excerpt from The Second Norman Conquest of England The following sketch had its birth in the mind of the writer through his accidental possession of a copy of L'Histoire des Ducs de Normandie et des Rois d'Angleterre - an anonymous chronicle in ancient French, which is supposed by competent authorities to have been written in the first quarter of the thirteenth century. By so distinguished an historian as Petit-Dutaillis (whose Life of Louis VIII. of France has been of invaluable aid in the preparation of this essay), L'Histoire des Ducs de Normandie et des Rois d'Angleterre is believed to be the work of an eye-witness of the scenes and events related. Careful study has been given in the preparation of this paper to the works of such chroniclers as Matthew Paris, Matthew of Westminster, Walter of Coventry, and especially Roger of Wendover.

Excerpt from The Normans in Europe The history of the Scandinavian Exodus which began in the ninth century falls conveniently into two periods. During the first, (800 circ. - 912) the people of Denmark, Sweden and Norway harassed Europe with their inroads, and formed definite settlements in the British Isles, Russia, and France. During the second, (1029-1066) France itself became the starting-place for a new series of incursions, led by men of Scandinavian descent, who had by that time adopted French customs and language. To this period belong the settlements in Spain and Italy, and the Norman conquest of England. The aim of this book is to present a connected view of these incursions, and to bring clearly before the reader the important fact, that the Norman Conquest was only the last of this long series of settlements and conquests. The narrow limits required by the character of the series have necessitated much compression. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of England Before the Norman Conquest Such are a few of the leading features of a period comparatively unknown, and which cannot fail, it is hoped, to prove a useful study to those who desire an introduction to the History of Eng land; for these personal records of the wives and daughters of our early monarchs, form naturally the connecting links between many public events which would otherwise remain detached and unintelligible. The history of British female Sovereigns before the period of the Conquest had necessarily to be drawn from chronicles which present many legendary records, and which grave writers have sometimes rejected, perhaps too unsparingly; for, as a learned translatorAbout the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
