About this listen

Imagine you were transported back in time to Medieval England and had to start a new life there. Without mobile phones, iPads, internet, and social media networks, when transport means walking or, if you're fortunate, horseback, how will you know where you are or what to do? Where will you live? What is there to eat? What shall you wear? How can you communicate when nobody speaks as you do and what about money? Who can you go to if you fall ill or are mugged in the street? However can you fit into and thrive in this strange environment full of odd people who seem so different from you?

All these questions and many more are answered in this new guidebook for time-travelers: How to Survive in Medieval England. A handy guide with tips and suggestions to make your visit to the Middle Ages much more fun, this lively and engaging book will help the listener deal with the new experiences they may encounter and the problems that might occur. Know the laws so you don't get into trouble or show your ignorance in an embarrassing faux pas.

Enjoy interviews with the celebrities of the day, from a businesswoman and a condemned felon, to a royal cook and King Richard III himself. Have a go at preparing medieval dishes and learn some new words to set the mood for your time-traveling adventure. You'll have an exciting visit with this helpful guide.

Great fun

This punchy and entertainingly composed guidebook delivers a tantalising glimpse of medieval England at a pace that never lingers too long. The time travel premise is fun and not overdone. So many historical nuggets and originations that are succinct, informative and amusing throughout. All is well said and in a pleasing tone by the narrator.
