[Jay Waghray · Rating 4 out of 5]

Does what it says on the box. Franco-centric.

[Caroline Mathews · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very well put together. Chronologically, as well as in explaining other factors - the church, the crusades, the dynasties, and the rise and fall of the feudal system - separately. If there weren't so many books in my stack, I'd read it again. A perfect reference book.

[Gerald Greene · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very helpful; full of detail

[Sheffielder · Rating 2 out of 5]

Very detailed, to be sure, but ultimately unsatisfying. There's a lot of detail about which king fought which duke and so forth - but entire lifetimes go by in a couple of sentences and I'm no wiser as to what the world at the time was actually like for anyone (not even the people mentioned). Abandoned after completing 45%.

Reasonable read

I did feel it was over waited towards France/Gaul . It was a pleasant read could not see why the concluding section was in the book. What was the reason for stopping at 1270?

[Larissa · Rating 2 out of 5]

Só tenho uma coisa a dizer: uma das piores leituras do tema acadêmico que fiz.

[Chic · Rating 3 out of 5]

Too detailed for my liking, too much on characters vs. the era.
