David Yorkshire of Mjolnir: A Magazine for the Creative Arts [1] has recently produced a series of videos in which he takes a look at the Normans and the impact they had and have had on English society from various locations of significance in Normandy itself. The first documentary is from Barfleur, embarkation point of the Norman fleet before it set sail to England. Dave offers some general information on the Duchy of Normandy’s foundation and the dukes, as well as background information on England’s recent history leading up to the invasion in 1066. The entire series can be found here [2].
