Looking For A History Book Rec. - Norman Dynasty

I'm looking for a recommendation for a readable non-fiction account of the Norman Dynasty of England.

The reason: I want to fill in a gap in my very basic grasp of the period. As in, 'William the Conquorer invaded in 1066 ... and then some stuff happened ... and then Henry the II's brood ... '.

I want to fill in that "and then some stuff happened".
