I got your book. I am enjoying it so far.

[@TheNickcone]

This is such a great channel.

[@yankees29]

I listen all day while I drive around working. Extremely interesting and entertaining

[@michaelrobertson4587]

William was certainly an outstanding historical figure to have survived through such a dangerous childhood up to adulthood and than to go from being a duke to a king definitely is a remarkable life story that few people have achieved we owe him so much because the entire English world that we know today goes back to what he achieved at the battle of Hastings in 1066.

[@miliba]

William also wouldve survived if he had been born in the Ottoman royal family

[@michaelrobertson4587]

@@miliba I guess so maybe but probably not.

[@brianfuller7691]

This was an outstanding presentation of very interesting history. This is an awesome channel.

[@RealCrusadesHistory]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@EdLemieux]

Loving the new visuals. Total war one of my favorite games.

[@cassandrarose2108]

Another good video!! Can you do one on Empress Matilda please? :D

[@Engehaugen82]

One of your best episodes. Love your work templar. God speed from Norway.

[@nalmolen9394]

I’ve always loved this story... it lacks Nothing.

[@RexOlafusVidulusMagnus]

How about, you make a video on the Siege of Vilnius in 1390s. Henry of Derby took part in it. Tueutons attacked Lithuania, with pretext of crusade, despite it being already baptised by Poland.

[@21stEidein]

The Teutons were assholes for that lol

[@shanemize3775]

Great video, as usual. You gave substantial insight into what made Duke William into such an effective ruler and warrior later in life. I was unaware of these things. As usual, the visuals and the way you told the story really drew me in and kept me fully engaged, to say the least. Lol. How old was Duke William when he lead that battle with King Henri of France? He had to be very young and certainly inexperienced in leading an army in battle. Though he had been trained in Norman military ways and personal combat dang near since birth, it's wholly another thing when you are galloping into the fray. He was the Conqueror, no doubt. Please keep the outstanding videos coming and God bless you, my friend!

[@alanyoung290]

My ancestors were Normans from Lourdes. They served him well at the battle of Hastings and became minor nobility.

[@kirkmarrie8060]

Outstanding presentation!

[@petermercury4020]

Great work J.

[@thecrusaderhistorian9820]

Wonderful video.

[@trock7542]

David Bates history of William the conquerer is a great book.

[@JRBDWD]

Your videos are beautiful and informative,brother.

[@lucasvanderhoeven3760]

Great video!

[@Irishwanderer15]

I'm related to William the Conqueror. This should be fun. :-)

[@SimCentralYT]

That’s badass man!

[@JRBDWD]

Cool,honour your ancestry then.

[@Philipp.of.Swabia]

How exactly ? Any major proof ?

[@crixusthenorman1603]

How do you know this? You must have genealogical records that go far back? I have Norman ancestry on my mother's side. I'm Quebec, most people can trace back ancestry to the 1600's. Most Quebecois are descendants of the Normans

[@JRBDWD]

@@crixusthenorman1603 Some lineages had the advantage of belonging to previous important people and families so their records were kept. Others are more general,regarding entire populations,like your case with the quebecois. By the way,keep that flame alive,avoid m1sc3g3n4t10n and i hope your country dont end up becoming a chinese colony or an islamic one.

[@stephenh9483]

Fantastic, I love this

[@charmerci]

Where's that castle ruin at 2:27 located?

[@Thorden]

Hi, I am going to be a little bit offtopic but I am thinking about reading some book about Richard the Lionheart. I am mostly interested in his exploits in the middle east but I would not mind an entire biography if its really good. What do you think is the best book on this topic ? Thank you

[@RealCrusadesHistory]

Richard the Lionheart by John Gillingham.

[@-RONNIE]

Good video 👍🏻

[@rexdeus7658]

Do you know about ancient families in these times in these areas? I know you do but idk how extensive. You cover the key players scholarly.

[@MrZadokthePriest]

The trauma of boyhood made the man. Based and badass: to impose order through strong rule.

illegitimate william can't hold a candle to me.

[@Halbared]

The worst thing to happen to England.

[@JuTakii]

Why

[@caravaggiosaccomplice5103]

Mate, you tell a good yarn. The Normans were the best thing that happened to Britain. Just look at the cathedrals. More social history would b great to hear from you.

[@Uap-i3o]

Are cultural history was wiped clean.
