'there can be few who will not read this book with profit... good value...well illustrated...this volume is a good read, from whom all readers, at any levels, will learn much.'John S.Moore, Journal of the Society of Archivists,'This is a superb work of scholarship that will inspire future generatioins to cherish and to further investigate the medieval past. No reader could fail to be impressed by its scope and its flair.'Nicholas Vincent, English Historical Review'One of the most brilliant and idiosyncratic books ever to have been published on the history of medieval England.

  • Very informative.

    Very informative book, easy to follow and reference. Organized topically, not chronologically so things get a little muddled, but okay as far as it goes.
