  William the Conqueror from Jacob Abbott's "Makers of History" series details the extraordinary life of William I of England, universally known as William the Conqueror. First published in the mid-19th century, the biography chronicles how an illegitimate boy born in Normandy overcame immense political odds to permanently transform the language, culture, and governance of Anglo-Saxon England through the historic Norman Conquest of 1066.    The biography follows William's journey from a heavily targeted youth to the master of England:    The Illegitimate Heir: The book opens with William's early life as "William the Bastard." Abbott describes the chaos of his childhood in Normandy, where young William narrowly survived numerous assassination plots by jealous nobles who rejected his right to rule.    Consolidating Normandy: Abbott details how William grew into a fierce warrior and brilliant strategist, successfully crushing rebellions and securing his absolute rule over the Duchy of Normandy.    The Promise and the Rivalry: The narrative explores the complex political backstory involving King Edward the Confessor of England and Harold Godwinson. Abbott explains the Norman claim that Harold swore a sacred oath to support William's succession to the English throne.    The Invasion of 1066: A major highlight of the book is the massive preparation for the cross-channel invasion, culminating in a gripping account of the Battle of Hastings, where King Harold was killed and the Anglo-Saxon army defeated.  The Subjugation of England: Abbott details the brutal methods William used to cement his rule, including the "Harrying of the North," the building of the Tower of London, and the creation of the Domesday Book—a massive wealth and land survey.    A Contentious End: The biography concludes with William's troubled final years, marked by bitter rebellions led by his own son, Robert, and William's eventual painful death resulting from a riding accident during a siege in France.
