One of my grade school teachers had this in class and I spent hours investigating the pages. Even with HD history documentaries and the like today, this book still extensively captures my curiosity.
It legit has tons of neat information and visuals about architecture and life in castles. If someone has the slightest interest in the Middle Ages, lord of the rings, D&D, castles or anything like that, this book will suck them right in.
I got this little sliver of nostalgia for my 2nd grade son and he gets just as lost in it as I do! The print is fantastic and just like I remember it. Thanks so much!

nudity and grotesque graphics are unnecessary
Got this for my daughter for Christmas. A bit to graphic, even for older kids. Perhaps it’s accurate for the times but the nudity and grotesque graphics are unnecessary.
