DOMESDAY: A Search for the Roots of England - In 1086 the Domesday Book, perhaps the most remarkable historical document in existence, was compiled. This tremendous survey of England and its people was made at the behest of the Norman, William the Conqueror. This book is a study of the ancient manuscript and an attempt to analyse the world that the Domesday Book portrayed. The Domesday record is used to examine Norman society, and also to penetrate beyond it to the Anglo-Saxon, Roman and Iron Age cultures that preceded it.
