Ch 6, small business. Tradesmen and craftsmen lived where they worked and their wives and male relatives could help them. Goldsmiths could pound gold tens of thousands of times to get it into super thin gold leaf which was then used by monks carefully in their manuscripts which they spent long times working on. Puts a new value on vivid medieval manuscripts.

If i could have any job in medieval times, maybe I would be a scribe. (Or a knight)

Ch 11 scholarship. Really interesting topic to me. Reread this chapter. Read what medieval scholars read.

Ch 9 church life. Not much novel info here for me. Other than an interesting excerpt of a medieval sermon about an honest merchant, and that people sometimes brought their own stools or other seats to church. Pretty basic Medieval catholicism.
