Castles, Customs and Kingsby Debra Brown Author, EditorI recieved a copy of this book in return for an honest review. That being said....It is not a typical novel. But it kept my attention as a novel would. I read all 548 pages taking a minimal number of breaks. It kept my attention throughout.I love history. I always have. If I read and a person, place or event is referenced, I have a need to find more about it. It creates a need for me to look for more reading material about it. This book did just that for me. If I had had books similar in nature to this one when writing papers for school, I would have begun my research there.The book is in 9 partsThere are nine sections: Starting at about 55BC and continuing chronologically to the Twentieth Century.1. Roman Britain and Early Medieval Period (55 BC – AD 1000)2. Late Medieval Period (1001-1485)3. Tudor Period (1485-1603)4. Stuart Period (1603-1714)5. Early Georgian Period (1715-1800)6. Late Georgian and Regency Era (1800-1837)7. Victorian Era (1837-1901)8. Twentieth Century9. Historical Tidbits Across the AgesIt includes historical events told as acurately as possible after all history can be a bit illusive when you cover that large a span of time, going back that far. It tells the stories of people and places. It covers political issues as well as religous ones. Youu learn about everyday life, clothing food and so much more.It includes references including the authors whose work was researched numbering over 50. You will even find the titles of other works they have done. I decided early on in my time reading this that I had to have an actual physical copy.
