Now, for the first time, it is published together with its sequel, "The Kingdom in the Sun." In 1016 a rebel Lombard lord at the shrine of Monte Sant'Angelo appealed for help to a group of pilgrims - and unwittingly set in motion "the other Norman Conquest." Here is the epic story of the house of Hauteville: of Robert Guiscard, perhaps the most extraordinary European adventurer between Caesar and Napolean, who briefly held at bay the Pope, the Eastern and the Western Emperors, of his brother Roger, who helped him win Sicily from the Saracens; and of his nephew Roger II, crowned at Palermo in 1130.* This is a VG++ text copy of the 1st./2nd. with minimal age and wear reducing it to VG+.*
