The Thrifty Guide to Medieval Times: A Handbook for Time Travelers - Jonathan W. Stokes

nThe kid-friendly series that makes history approachable, engaging, and funny From the publishing house that brought you the Who Was? books. nThe Thrifty Guide to Medieval Times: A Handbook for Time Travelers is a snappy, informative, illustrated travel guide with everything the sensible time traveler needs to know, like: n * Where I can find the best hovel? n * What are my healthcare options if I catch the Black Plague? n * How can I avoid being attacked by pillaging Huns? n * And most importantly, why on earth would anyone want to travel back to medieval times? n nThis book is designed as a parody of Fodor's guides, complete with humorous maps, reviews of places to stay and top attractions (don't miss a jousting tournament... but watch out for lances ), and tips on whom to have lunch with (murderous Queen Olga of Kiev, naturally--just don't eat or drink anything around her ). If you had a time travel machine and could take a vacation anywhere in history, this is the only guidebook series you would need.n
