Mielenkiintoinen luukkukirja, jonka aukeamilla oli myös lukijalle uutta faktaa ja nippelitietoa linnanherrojen elintavoista entisaikaan! Yli 50luukkua ei tuntunut paljolta määrältä lukiessa, vaikka kannesta luettuna tietoa hämmästeltiin lasten kanssa yhteen ääneen.

Hauska kuvitus, huvittavia yksityiskohtia joka sivulla ja kaikille - niin lukijalle kuin kuuntelijoille - mielenkiintoinen aihe.

Once again this book makes History comes to life by allowing the reader to look inside the life of castles. Definitely a good book to understand the History of the Middle Ages.
