The epic of William the Conqueror explained to children.

We're ready my lord.

— Good, let us raise the anchor! I am eager to regain Norman soil.

— You left as a duke and return as a king, dear William…

— I am honoured by your compliments, Edgar… But, more so, I left as a ‘bastard'... and return as a ‘conqueror'!

William the Conqueror’s epic tale is one of the most incredible adventures in history. Heir to the Duchy of Normandy upon his father’s death, he who was referred to as ‘the Bastard’ by his enemies was to become King of England!

From fortified castles to abbeys, this comic strip lets you follow in the footsteps of William and Matilda, via a fascinating discovery of William the Conqueror’s life.
