A History of Private Life: Volume 2 (Revelations of the Medieval World)

Author: Georges Duby & Phillippe Aries
Stars: 4
Review by: Mandy Apgar


A very in depth account of daily living of the Medieval period. Pretty much anything one can think of is covered (although I thought the parts on religion were strangely lacking) from the structure of families to how beds were made and kept. It focuses mostly on European persons, especially Western Europe and the United Kingdom.
