Work Description
What was it really like to live in a castle? Step back to the Middle Ages with Castle Diary: The Journal of Tobias Burgess.
Eleven-year-old Toby’s vivid diary entries offer an insider’s view of day-to-day castle life, including tips on etiquette (where do you spit at a feast?) and exciting descriptions of hunting, jousting, and harvesting.
Complete with glossary, index, and detailed endnotes, this is a rich look at medieval life that informs as much as it entertains. Part of the Historical Fiction Diaries series.
