Negative Positive
Title: Complete and informative without being overly pedantic
Review: A detailed yet readable history of a time often ignored. From the 'fall' of Rome to the Crusades, crucial systems of religion, government and agriculture were formed amid the chaos of barbarian invasions and insurgent Islam.This book explains the times from many perspectives, and uses the latest anthropological evidence as well as discerning scholarship to arrive at solid conclusions. The text is not overly difficult to digest, and I believe will be useful to the scholar as well as the general reader.
