i've heard great reviews about these 2 14thc books

Sir Rodney:
The title The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England: A Handbook for Visitors to the Fourteenth Century by Ian Mortimer caught my interest.  Thank you Sir Wolf!  One member of myArmoury lists this title on his reading list.  I sent him an inquiry and this was his response:


--- Quote ---I think it’s worth your while Scott - the book covers a hell of a lot for the price of it - Mortimer has a good turn of phrase and is easy to follow and yet the detail is still there - great info on all walks of life: merchants, soldiers, clergy, nobles and the great unwashed masses - all that detail of daily life which conventional history books leave out - I would highly recommend it.
--- End quote ---

Sir Wolf:
ya i have heard rave reviews.

the perfect king is of course about edward and is more of a life biography. some people said the way it is written is a lot better than some fiction writings.

Joshua Santana:
This is nice!  I will have to yet read them and be amazed myself!

Sir William:
Are these for sale somewhere or you're just telling us about them?  I just bought one of your suggested books this morning.  :)
