«1066 and All That» is the historical satire by W. C. Sellar and R. J. Yeatman, published by Random House UK in paperback (123 pages, in English).
The work parodies history textbooks and school exams: it covers episodes of English history from the Norman conquest and finishes them with absurd questions. Its humour comes from mixing apparent erudition, historical stereotypes and the confused collective memory of events.
The work was originally published in 1930 and features illustrations by John Reynolds.
Aimed at readers fond of British humour and historical parody.
