Customer Reviews

A short summary.

This was a fascinating, incredible time in history, and this book hardly scratched the surface. There's so much more that could have been covered. The things that were covered was only briefly mentioned. It leaves to much out, even if used just as a spine.

Great Resource!

My son thoroughly enjoys the pictures and information. Easy to read and entertaining. Lots of value.

Great Overview of Medieval Period

Simple, straightforward text and pictures give a terrific overview of what was going on in the Medieval World. A jumping off place for getting more in depth. Maps and graphics are beautiful. The internet links are very helpful as well.
