Living the Past by Val Horsler
An entertaining, authoritative guide to 'living' history where the viewer or participant is taken back in time to experience the sights, sounds and sometimes smells of the past. It covers hundreds of meticulously researched re-enactments where participants relive a variety of past events from battles to royal progresses and medieval feasts to Saxon village life, as well as Britain's great living history museums whose activities and collections provide a direct experience of the past.
'This is the most inspiring book and answers many of the questions that we all want to knowIt is also highly entertaining and well illustrated. It explores almost every aspect of our past and brings out the kind of detail that transports us back... This examination of people in former times is so exhilarating that many will want to rush off to these museums and other places without delay.' HERITAGE FOCUS magazine 'Book of the Year' -Jan 04
