Watch out for the commercials on YouTube, they are getting a bit out there!
This is an interesting essay from a U of Kansas professor. He compares feudalism to organized crime, just in its organizational aspects. But you can ignore the read and just read the black for a good overview of how feudalism worked in some ways.
The professor has a number of lectures online in written form, I haven't read them all.

Here's a page for Mrs. Dygert's question about the Norman invasion. They seem to have been referring to William bringing a more developed, top down feudal organization to Britain, which had not had one central leader before that. I think Bauer may have pointed this out because of the importance of the Domesday Book, which was a survey made of all the British lands for William, who now considered himself owner of it all as he had conquered.
