Life in Medieval France (Insights From the Past) Kindle Edition
Perfect for readers of Ian Mortimer, John Julius Norwich and Frances Gies.
Without doubt France was one of the wealthiest and most magnificent realms of the medieval world.
Gothic architecture soared to the skies, troubadours sang romantic ballads and knights jousted for chivalric honour. Yet, this was also a land where peasants served their masters with little freedom, while war, pestilence and famine threatened their lives and those of their families.
E.R. Chamberlin’s fascinating overview of medieval France introduces the reader to what life was like for these peasants and knights, how merchants were developing towns and guilds, in what ways Christianity imbued the thoughts of all people, and how art and architecture was developing throughout the land.
Life in Medieval France is an essential book for anyone interested in learning more about both high and low society during this remarkable period.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the most interesting of his work.
I have read several of this author's books, and have found them to be really interesting. However, this is not one of his best, largely due to the inclusion of a lot of somewhat boring, and often, in my opinion, unnecessary detail. It is a short book anyway, and I get the impression that a lot of this detail is there to pad out the book.
I am quite surprised that such a fascinating topic has produced, even with the padding of excessive detail, such a short book.
I found it to be quite a page turner, by which I mean I was skimming through the more tedious passages to find something to grab my attention. I was often disappointed. Generally, it was definitely easy to put this book down and go and do something more entertaining.
I had expected the standard shown in his work on Italy, but did not find it to be the case. Rather a disappointment, though as I paid only 99p I'm not upset that I wasted money.
I would not recommend this book.
