1066: The Battle of Hastings is a graphic novel that retells one of the most important events in England's history.

1066 is one of the most famous dates in the history of the United Kingdom: the year of the Battle of Hastings. It was a key turning point in the nation's history, marking the end of the Anglo-Saxon era and the start of the Norman period.

This graphic novel tells the story of what happened before, during and after this iconic battle. Discover all the details surrounding the story, from the mistakes and decisions that meant William of Normandy became the first Norman king of England to how Harold was killed - was it by an arrow in the eye?

It will invite the reader to see the action in its comic-strip panels, and they will learn not only about the events and the key participants on both sides, but also the tactics and weapons the armies employed, and even learn some of the different languages of the time.
