medieval bookshop
Medieval Books. Usually there are two types of categories of Medieval Books:
1. Antique books written several hundred years ago; and
2. Books printed recently about medieval subjects.
Antique medieval books were of course written by a quill and ink and modern medieval books were mass produced by large printing presses. (As if you didn’t know that).
However this distinction is important to make if you are going to ask someone to find/order a medieval book for you. You would be amazed at just how many people make this common mistake especially when you visit a second hand bookstore. The poor guy behind the counter just doesn’t know so to help him with your request be specific.
If you are looking for a new medieval book then visit theMedievalBookstore atwww.themedievalbookstore.com

Medieval Reenactment
What is Medieval Re-enactment?
Medieval re-enactment also known as medieval living history is where people try to re-create life as it was in medieval times.
When were the medieval times?
The term medieval refers to a particular part of European history, also known as the Middle Ages. This time period was from the 10th century AD to the 15th century AD.
What is the difference between the Dark Ages and the Middle Ages?
The Dark Ages occurred after the Fall of Rome and the Middle Ages occurred after the Dark Ages.
The Dark Ages - This was the time period from the 5th century AD to the 9th century AD.
Early Medieval - This was the time period from the 10th century AD to the 11th century AD.
High Medieval - This was the time period from the 12th century AD to the 13th century AD.
Late Medieval - This was the time period from the 14th century AD to the 15th century AD.
The Renaissance - This was the time period from the 16th century AD to the 17th century AD.
What is chainmail?
Chainmail also known as chainmaille or maille was a form of armor made from small metal rings all joined together in a similar way to how the links of a chain are all linked together. Good for protection against a sword, not so good for protecting you against a mace or axe.
Weren't swords heavy like you see in the movies?
Okay, now we are getting silly. No, they weren't. The average sword weighed about 2 and a half to 3 pounds. And I certainly wouldn't believe anything that I see in the movies. Movies are made to make money they are not designed to show you an accurate portrayal of history.
What is Jousting?
This is a competetion where knights in armor charge at each other on horse back with a long "spear" known as a lance. Great to watch! Even better if you're one of them.
