Description

<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>

Reviews

<font face="Tahoma">...directly answers the many questions that first-time self-publishers will have...similar books tell you vaguely &quot;what you need to do&quot; as a self-publisher, but not &quot;how to do it&quot;. [This book provides] a concrete set of simple steps, without all the waffle. I recommend this book.<br />      - Tony Loton, author, &quot;Book Publishing DIY: The Do It Yourself Guide to Self-Publishing using Lulu and CreateSpace&quot;<br /><br /><br />This book is a gem.<br />      - Jeff Lippincott, Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer, Vine Voice<br /><br /></font><font face="Tahoma">Reading this book is a must for the writer who is trying to self publish their work. Everything you need to know or could ever have a question about is covered.<br />     - Sunni Morris, Faeriemound Books<br /><br />Bible for independent authors - Glen Bonnet, Amazon Review</font>
