‘The sinking of the White Ship in 1120 is one of the greatest disasters England has ever suffered. In one catastrophic night, the king\u2019s heir and the flower of Anglo-Norman society were drowned and the future of the crown was thrown violently off course.<\/p>\n

In a riveting narrative, Charles Spencer follows the story from the Norman Conquest through to the decades that would become known as the Anarchy: a civil war of untold violence that saw families turn in on each other with English and Norman barons, rebellious Welsh princes and the Scottish king all playing a part in a desperate game of thrones. All because of the loss of one vessel \u2013 the White Ship \u2013 the medieval Titanic.’<\/p>\n
