The Year 1000 - What Life Was Like at the Turn of the First Millennium - An Englishman's World
Author(s): Robert Lacey; Danny Danziger
In the year 1000 the world was one of mystery and magicians, monks, warriors and wandering merchants - people who feared an apocalypse and people who had no idea what year it was or what lay beyond the nearest valley. It was a world of dark forests and Viking adventures in which fear was real and death a constant companion. People felt they walked hand-in-hand with God, and envisaged him so literally that even Christians were sometimes buried with supplies for the journey to the new life in heaven.
1999, First edition. A near fine copy only marked by a very slight lean to the spine. The d/w is very good with light edge rubbing.
