1.0 out of 5 stars Not a good history primer., 11 July 1999
By A Customer
I hope that no teacher seriously thinks about using this in a classroom to teach history. It perpetuates many of the myths medievalists have been trying to dispel for ages. Many items are misdated, or out of the period all together. Some of the clothing shown looks like it came from a bad renaissance fair. Some it probably never existed, such as the "typical peasant garb of the middle ages". If you are trying to do a play or a light novel, the inacuracies will proably not do any harm, but for a serious student this book is not recommended, with one exception. The bibliography does include some excellent books that would clearly contradict a good deal of the information contained in this volume. (Note to the author and editor: according to my copy of the OED, "Coronated" is not a word. Kings are crowned.)
