Written in a lively, humorous and engaging style and packed with informative historical detail, this is a fun way for children to understand medieval history.

Includes internet links to websites with quizzes, video clips and online activities via the Usborne Quicklinks website.

Sam Taplin grew up in a beautiful valley in Yorkshire, where he dreamed of being a writer, and after three years reading other people's books at university he started writing his own for Usborne. He's been doing it ever since. When he's not writing about lonely rabbits or inquisitive bears, he likes doing card tricks, writing songs and playing long games of chess by the fire.
