Format:Paperback
Life in the Middle Ages. A fascinating account of ordinary life. While reading, one discovers just how many assumptions one has regarding life in the Middle Ages. Sometimes, it might get a bit dry, but on the whole both enriching and entertaining.
For those not familiair with the Annales-school in history, it will be an eye-opener.

Format:Paperback
This book tells the story of the 14th century villagers and peasants of Montaillou. It chronicles their everyday lives, its importance is far greater than the story of the Cathar heresy, it is the story of the kind of people that are usually forgotten to history.

Format:Paperback
This book has been around for quite a long time now - it's a serious work, no pot-boiler - and has become a modern classic of its type, which can be classified, for the layman, as 'local history'. Essential reading for anyone seriously interested in the Cathars.
