First published in 1938 and reprinted many times, this book by the
distinguished medievalist G. G. Coulton (1858 1947) was described
by The Times Literary Supplement as 'a triumph of presentation ...
This survey is in short an achievement notable alike for its
erudition and also for the grace with which such learning is here
so lightly carried. ... it would be hard to discover a better
introduction to the everyday life of England during those pregnant
centuries between the Norman Conquest and the Reformation'.
Fifty-two chapters based on a lifetime of research cover every
aspect of medieval life, from the emergence of feudalism to 'the
bursting of the dykes' at the Reformation. The focus is largely on
England, but the European context is also clearly defined in this
remarkable synthesis: as a review in The Observer said at first
publication, 'There is no one else like Dr Coulton.'"
