The Time Traveller's Guide to Restoration Britain by Ian Mortimer

kelbi's review against another edition

5.0

This is a totally brilliant book. Far far more than a history book. I have now read his books on medieval England and Elizabethan England. I loved both, but I think this one surpasses them. I listened on Audible and I think the narrator on this book was not quite so good as were the previous narrators but the book itself is so good I did not mind that too much.

Nice overview of "everyday life" in its chosen era and place. Will be useful for anyone setting stories in the period, or wishing to get a broad context before more specific historical study. Full review: https://refereeingandreflection.wordpress.com/2023/11/13/the-world-is-your-setting-guide-6/

Not a good audio listen at all, maybe better in a physical book form but I’m realistically never going to pick this back up
