Growing Up in the Middle Ages

"What were childhood and adolescence like in the Middle Ages? From the perils of birth - for mother and child alike - through young adulthood, this study provides the answers. Focusing on Western Europe and covering all social classes, it draws upon the latest historical scholarship to fill out a picture of growing up in a time vastly different from our own, yet in some ways surprisingly familiar to modern sensibilities."--BOOK JACKET.Newman, Paul B. is the author of 'Growing Up in the Middle Ages ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780786430840 and ISBN 0786430842.
