Oh wow! What a wonderful review to wake up to! "Highly readable and entertaining, this is the sort of history book I wish I had as a boy." "I challenge anyone with an interest in medieval Britain to not find something they will learn from this book, and I look forward to the next instalment. Highly recommended." It has made my day! 😁😁😁 @PSHistory @penswordbooks @historia_hwa
