History comes in many shapes and forms, moved and crafted by the availability of knowledge, by ideology, and shifting modes of inquiry, by angles of approach, by a desire for distance or intimacy. Mortimer is of the latter camp; not the first in the history of history, but a peerless purveyor of its ilk.
Synopsis
The past is another country - this is your guidebook, from nationally bestselling author of The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England., The past is another country - this is your guidebook, from nationally bestselling author of The Time Traveler's Guide to Medieval England. Imagine you could see the smiles of the people mentioned in Samuel Pepys's diary, hear the shouts of market traders, and touch their wares. How would you find your way around? Where would you stay? What would you wear? Where might you be suspected of witchcraft? Where would you be welcome? This is an up-close-and-personal look at Britain between the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 and the end of the century. The last witch is sentenced to death just two years before Isaac Newton's Principia Mathematica, the bedrock of modern science, is published. Religion still has a severe grip on society and yet some--including the king--flout every moral convention they can find. There are great fires in London and Edinburgh; the plague disappears; a global trading empire develops. Over these four dynamic decades, the last vestiges of medievalism are swept away and replaced by a tremendous cultural flowering. Why are half the people you meet under the age of twenty-one? What is considered rude? And why is dueling so popular? Mortimer delves into the nuances of daily life to paint a vibrant and detailed picture of society at the dawn of the modern world as only he can., This is an up-close-and-personal look at Britain between the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 and the end of the century.

    Overall I would say this was a positive experience. The condition of the book is exactly as advertised, and for a great price. The only issue was the packaging. I know that not every book can come packaged in a secure box and that those costs add up, but shipping it in a bag without any kind of protection to keep it from folding up on itself was a bit of a bummer. But with that said, doesn't appear to have any serious damages, so it's hard to complain. Would definitely buy from seller again.

    Kudos to this seller! Bought from this seller as it was a real picture of the book I was buying even though a couple were cheaper. Who wants to buy something with no photo or a stock photo? I like to know what I’m getting! Good communication, safely arrived due to good packing, just as described! Great seller, would gladly buy from again! Thank you!!! 😃
