I have just started reading this and can`t seem to put it down.
Very convincing, realistic vision of England and it`s people during the 14th century.

I`m sure I have also seen it on E-bay.

Sir Gerard,

This looks to be an excellent resource. For those of us in the United States it may be found at Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=The+Time-traveller%27s+Guide+to+Medieval+England%3A+A+Handbook+for+Visitors+to+the+Fourteenth+Century+&x=13&y=24

I shall have to order one straight away! Thank you!

I am at your service,
Sir Blackwolf
