It's a Feudal, Feudal World: A Different Medieval History by Stephen Shapiro, Ross Kinnaird
4.0
This reminds me a bit of the "You Wouldn't Want to be a..." series.
It is an overview of medieval history from the fall of the Roman Empire to the beginning of the Renaissance. The use of humor, charts, infographics, maps, and timelines gives students a lot of information but broken into smaller, more manageable chunks. It is not limited solely to Europe but also includes Persia, Central Asia, and China. There is representation of weapons, faiths, artisans, peasants, rulers, etc. Each topic has a two-page spread with interesting and useful facts and tidbits.
A good beginning resource for those studying or interested in this topic.
