In case your news channel hasn't announced this, the Domesday Book (one of the earliest English public records, compiled under the order of William I the Conqueror, to survey and quantify his new kingdom) has been put online as a public resource.
The Domesday Book
"If there is a sin against life, it consists not so much in despairing as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this one."
Albert Camus "Noces"

Been to:
Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

his friends, put into their hands some tokens of remembrance for his wife and children, kneeled down, laid his head on the block, prayed during a
