Recenzii

These fascinating documents, from instructions on how to slay toothache-causing worms to the gritty details of medieval Scottish prisons, are perfect for students of medieval history.
Clearly intended as a teaching tool, this volume is a good introductory resource for the study of medieval Britain and Ireland. Summing Up: Recommended. High school through undergraduate students; general readers.
Mitchell chose materials from the Celtic regions (as well as the British Isles) that were not previously published in other source books . . . . For high school students and readers seeking an intimate look at history, who will appreciate the in-text definitions, appendix of biographical sketches, and glossary.
