William the Conqueror and the building of an Empire
A fascinating account of William the Conqueror over the 59 years of his life until his death in 1087. It is a very full and factual story covering all the main characters, events, and important dates during his rise to power. So full, that more than one listen is required to fully grasp all the facts narrated. However, one of the benefits of an audiobook is the ease of listening to the same tale over and over again .
