On this Day in 1066, the Battle of Hastings took place. Owing to French duplicity and the English sense of fair play, the Normans (William The Conqueror) emerged victorious against the Saxons (King Harold) and celebrated not with champagne, but with a tapestry!
Today is: Battle of Hastings Anniversary
Read about the two women who were there for it all.
