...and not every image makes it.
There were several images that didn’t make it into the book because
- it was already full to bursting with content,
- Charles changed the story,
- but we also decided that there really were enough images so these are
surplus to the requirements of the text and tell the story of 1066.
A few of these are included here – Bonus Material,
if you will…
 | ‘Stop for lunch’, not included on page 31 [principally for lack of space],
but referred to the fighting actually being suspended for a brief period while
the warriors had a quick, restorative snack! The text was subsequently amended
to remove the reference, obviating the need for an illustration. |

 | ‘Lone English warrior’ - drafted to illustrate how the Norsemen surrounded
and defeated the Northumbrian army at Fulford – the image shows a group of
Vikings singling out a lone Northumbrian warrior (page 22) and advancing on
him menacingly [his prospects aren’t good]. |
 | Lamp from the mast of Duke William’s ship which led the Norman invasion
fleet as they cross the English Channel to Hastings [page 34]. |
