I normally steer clear of Oprah endorsements, but I am fascinated by the medieval - - not enough to participate in a RenFair, and apparently not enough to plow through this doorstop of 973 pages of teensy font and a writing style that is very matter of fact/newspaper article boring. It's just hard to stick with a book I'm not enjoying when I know there are so many gems sitting in my "to read" pile. Still, shame on me for being so noncommittal.

855619 I am impressed that you even tried, frankly. Long, and small font, AND medeival? Pass.

148416 Yes but remember, I don't like myself very much, as evidenced by some of my book choices.
