The book of the Bayeux tapestry :
Hilaire Belloc's 1914 commentary on the Bayeux Tapestry, published in London by Chatto & Windus for general readers and students of the Norman Conquest. Colour plates reproduce the embroidery panel by panel: flat-toned figures in tunics hauling ships, Latin captions in capitals, arcaded buildings, and narrow borders of beasts and fallen bodies.
