Description:

Classic study by a prominent medieval scholar vividly recreates the lives of six ordinary people who lived between the 9th and 16th centuries: a peasant on a country estate in Charlemagne's time, a Venetian traveler of the 13th century; a prioress and a middle-class Parisian housewife of the 14th century; and a merchant and a cloth maker from the days of Henry VII. A lively account that will capture the imaginations of students, history teachers, and general readers.
