[MR] Anniversary: Norman Conquest

[Garth G. Groff]

  Noble friends,

Today, 28 September, marks the landing of William of Normandy on the 
Kentish coast, and the beginning of the Norman Conquest of England. For 
a quick read, try this Wikipedia article: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_conquest_of_England .

Interesting to speculate on what England might have been if the 
Anglo-Saxons had pushed William and his army back into the sea. It was a 
close-rung thing, you know.

Kind regards,
