Horrible Histories: Measly Middle Ages (New Edition)

Fatter. Funnier. And with bigger pics. A new chunky edition: the same historical splattering of laughter, blood and gore. What on earth happened in the measly Middle Ages? So many nasty bits you’ll be laughing for ages, that’s what. The Black Death. Nasty knights. Mad monks. Wild women. Terrible torturers. Bloody battles. Cruel schools. Yikes. Think ‘the Middle Ages’ sounds kind of old and boring? (You know, like middle-aged people?) VERY WRONG.
