The Perjured Crown - Paperback

by Berwick Coates (Author)

Two years before the Battle of Hastings, Earl Harold of Wessex and Wiliam of Normandy met - but not in battle. Harold was shipwrecked on the Norman coast, and spent the summer with William. Before he sailed home, he swore an oath, that, when King Edward the Confessor - God forbid - should die, he, Harold, would not try to stop William gaining the English throne.
