It tells of how William, the Duke of Normandy, claimed the English throne after the death of King Edward the Confessor, despite Harold taking control of the kingdom. William built a large fleet and launched an invasion from Normandy. After defeating the Norwegian King's attack in the north, an exhausted Harold's army was defeated by William at the Battle of Hastings through a strategic ambush using hidden archers in the woods.
