A reprint of my Silverhill Press book about the Battle of Hastings.

'Senlac Hill, the presumed site of the 1066 Battle of Hastings, has long been a resonant place. A fairly anonymous field, rising at one edge to a ridge, on which now stands Battle Abbey, built by the victorious William as a symbol of his victory over Harold, the anonymity of the field is overwhelmed by our knowledge of the slaughter which happened there nearly 1000 years ago. I revisited Senlac, and other sites important to the battle, to photograph how they appear today. I combined some of the pictures with contemporary and near-contemporary accounts of the events of that day.'

36 pages of photographs and text.
