'Been on the shelves a while, and not really new ground for me as I've read plenty in the past on the Normans and their various escapades.an interesting study on how exceptional the Normans were, and how widespread their impact was - after all, they were few in number and only at the elite level in most cases, and other than in England didn't hang around for too long.
Libby came home two days ago asking if I had any books on Eleanor of Aquitaine, which of course is the sort of thing I have waited my whole life to hear. so I went straight to the shelves, found her some suitable books, told her to watch the Lion In Winter and found some podcasts she could listen to, which is obviously complete overkill for a year 7 assignment, but I can't help myself. She is determined not to listen to the podcast, bless her.
