Britain in the Middle Ages
31
Dec
Presents a radical reassessment of Britain in the middle ages. The author shows that the Middle Ages were actually the time when the modern world was born. This was when Britain moved from Late Antiquity into a recognizable world of fixed roads and parishes, and familiar institutions, such as the church and local government, came into being.
