This review is from: Falaise Roll, Recording Prominent Companions of William Duke of Normandy at (Hardcover)
In 1927, the 900th anniversary of the birth of William I, a plaque was unveiled at Falaise which listed the names of 406 men supposed to have been companions of the Conqueror. Several more books and numerous articles have been published for and against any such list, but -- infighting aside -- this is still a good source for brief sketches of a large number of Norman and Breton nobles and adventurers. Ignore Crispin's arguments and conclusions, if you like, and use the heavily-footnoted sketches as a biographical dictionary of the long-term Norman conquest.
