You’ve been transported back in time to an age of formidable fortresses, epic sieges, and deadly diseases! How will you survive?
Do you have what it takes to dodge flying arrows shot from longbows? Or 1,000-pound stones flung at you from trebuchets? OK, maybe you’re great at dodgeball, so no sweat. But how about smaller and unseen dangers, like the deadly bubonic plague? FYI, you better not get sick—left in the care of a medieval doctor, you might end up worse off after their suggested “cure”!
This guide gives you all the know-how you need to survive one of the so-called darkest periods in human history. From ruthless rulers who issue grueling punishments for breaking their (sometimes silly) laws, to totally gross living conditions (alas, indoor plumbing is still hundreds of years away!), to what to do if you find yourself in a jousting tournament (uh-oh), this book gives you all the tips and tricks you need to make it out alive!
For real? YES—everything you read is backed up by leading historians and experts.
So what are you waiting for? Dive in and see if you have what it takes to survive in the age of knights!
