This is an excellent book in the series about history of everyday life in medieval Scotland. It's jam-packed full of details, a one-stop shop for any researcher or avid Scottish history fan. It is also easy to read and very interesting - nothing dull or boring here! I took my time with it, read other books in between, but love coming back to this book again and again. Highly recommend.
