The Normans In Sicily

Henry Gally Knight’s book “The Normans in Sicily: Being a Sequel to An Architectural Tour in Normandy” combines a travelogue based on an architectural tour of Sicily with a historical description of the Normans. The book, which was published in 1838, examines the impact of the Normans in Sicily. Knight offers a thorough examination of Norman history and architecture. Knight was a British M.P. writer and explorer who held the office of High Sheriff of Nottinghamshire from 1814 to 1815. For anyone with an interest in history or architecture, it’s a great resource.
