Beguiling, Spoiled, Imperial, always a woman.

A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century
Barbara W. Tuchman
Ballantine Books
, 1987
absolutely first-rate reconstruction of our medieval soul
This is a wonderfully readable and engrossing book on the period that marked us more deeply - as the source of so many of our touchstone images and ideas - than just about any other. We, or at least I, imagine dungeons, cold, early death, blind faith, and the knightly ...

World Without End
Ken Follett
Dutton Adult

Ken Follett has done it again!
A sequel of sorts to The Pillars of The Earth takes place two hundred years later. The descendents of some of the original characters are present and fun to find. The story reads the same. Like you can't put it down even though it is a lot of pages. All the better, ...

First Thoughts
We just received this the other day. At first glance it appears to be *slightly* more condensed than the previous full edition of the "Handbook", which, in my opinion is a good thing. Still very dense and an absolute must-have if you want or need to know anything about ...
