Description

In 1086, Domesday Book, perhaps the most remarkable historical document in existence, was compiled.

This tremendous story of England and its people was made at the behest of the Norman king William the Conqueror.

It was called Domesday, the day of judgement, because 'like the day of judgement, its decisions are unalterable'.

In Search of the Roots of England is not only a study of the ancient manuscript but an attempt to analyse the world that Domesday Book so vividly portrayed.

By skilful use of the Domesday record historian Michael Wood examines Norman society and the Anglo-Saxon, Roman, and even the Iron Age cultures that preceded it. 'Wood is a perceptive, entertaining and enthusiastic companion.' Sunday Times 'Wood is a lively storyteller.' Washington Post
