Amazon.co.uk Review
Medieval Life is a superb introduction to the intricate details of a time where the banquets and fine clothes of the upper classes contrasted dramatically with the lives of ordinary people.

Learn about life in a monastery, discover why people wore pilgrim badges, find out about why mystery plays were performed and how apprentices learned their trade with the benefits of excellent photography and thoroughly researched information presented in clear and concise, easy-to-digest snippets.

Perfect for all those tricky homework projects, and fascinating for anyone who is, quite simply, interested in this intriguing episode in history, Medieval Life is a dynamic, well-designed book that will sit happily on any reference shelf. Age 9 and over. --Susan Harrison
