The Year 1000: What Life was Like at the Turn of the First Millenium: An Englishman's World by Robert Lacey and Danny Danziger

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners. Light foxing to top foredge. Interior and binding are excellent. Dust jacket has minimal wear.

The Year 1000 is a vivid evocation of how English people lived a thousand years ago—no spinach, sugar, or Caesarean operations in which the mother had any chance of survival, but a world that knew brain surgeons, property developers, and, yes, even the occasional gossip columnist.

In the spirit of modern investigative journalism, Lacey and Danziger interviewed the leading historians and archaeologists in their field. (publisher blurb)
