About this book

Barbara W. Tuchman examines fourteenth-century Europe through both major upheavals and the routines of daily life. A Distant Mirror places war, religious division and disease beside questions of childhood, marriage, work and taxation. Its history ranges across social classes, considering how nobles, clergy, merchants and laborers experienced the same unsettled period from different positions.
