520    An illustrated look at various aspects of life in medieval
       Europe, covering everyday life, religion, royalty, and 
       more. Be an eyewitness to medieval Europe-see what life 
       was really like in the royal court, a country manor, and 
       the bustling streets of a developing town. See which 
       musical instruments were played. Find out about medieval 
       arts and crafts. Discover what happened during the 
       Inquisition. New Look! Relaunched with new jackets and 8 
       pages of new text! The Middle Ages ran from the end of the
       Dark Ages to the Renaissance in the 15th century. This 
       collection of superb photographs brings vividly to life 
       rural and town life during that era, including the life of
       a peasant "tied to the soil," the power of the Church, and
       the rise of trade guilds. Starting with a description of 
       the feudal system that existed in much of Europe, the book
       features artifacts, costumes, furniture, and building to 
       illustrate daily medieval life. Discover the hardships of 
       life on the land, as well as the magnificent tournaments 
       of the royal court. Learn how food was prepared and served
       at a great banquet. See the illuminated chronicles kept by
       scholarly monks, and how master craftworkers used their 
       skills to decorate the great cathedrals. Packed with 
       fascinating facts, Medieval Life is a unique and 
       compelling introduction to the people and culture of the 
       Middle Ages.
