Europe, England 

The series "History in Evidence" encourages the young reader to deduce how our ancestors lived from a study of the primary evidence unearthed by archaeologists. Each title focuses on a specific period in British history and uses colour photographs of artefacts, accompanied by detailed artists' reconstructions, to provide an authentic picture of everyday life in a bygone age. This book reveals what everyday life was like in the Middle Ages (1300-1485). With the help of recent archaeological discoveries, Robin Place shows us the houses that people lived in during medieval times, the variety of food they ate, the clothes they wore and the trades and crafts they practised. It discusses how they made pottery and the development of the wool industry, concentrating on exciting new finds at the monk's woolhouse at Fountains Abbey. The book ends by putting an end to the centuries-old mystery about the two little boys in the Tower of London. Were they indeed the little princes murdered in 1483? There is a list of places and museums to visit for further information. Robin Place also wrote "The Vikings", "Vikings: Fact and Fiction", "Romans: Fact and Fiction" and "Excavating People". - from Amzon
