THESE COLORING BOOKS ARE EXCELLENT!
The Dover Coloring books are all excellent! They are also an awesome value! We own and use over 20 of these coloring books for history and science. They are extremely detailed and educational, but even my 6 year old loves to color them! This book covers from the fall of the Roman Empire to the rise of the merchant class and features pictures like daily activities of those in the castle, warfare, jousting, archery, hunting, gardens, courtship, Ladies, nobility, feasts, serfs and peasants, skilled workers, crime & punishment, fairs, religion, technological advances, etc. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Inexpensive, interesting way to learn about the Middle Ages
This coloring book is well-drawn and contains very interesting information about living as a serf, peasant, tradesman, or noble person during the Middles Ages. My children are 7 and 9 years old, and they are enjoying coloring the pages and adding them to their history notebook. I am learning quite a bit myself! Great value.

Life in a Medieval Castle and Village Coloring Book
Life in a Medieval Castle and Village Coloring Book by John Green is an excellent resource for anyone, children or adult, looking for a brief overview of life in the Middle Ages. The line drawings and text give clear views of many elements of medieval society from serf to noble; skills needed for defense and hunting to those of economic development-weaving, milling, blacksmithing, lumbering, marketing-are revealed with interesting detail and accuracy.

Top quality educational entertainment for home or school in a fascinating book of coloring fun portraying a dramatic and exciting period of history. Teacher recommended.
