Walter Dragun's Town: Medieval People at Work

Sheila Sanchez's book, The Luttrell Village, chronicled a year in the life of a 14th century agricultural community.

In Walter Dragun's Town she has chosen to study medieval Stanford (now called Stamford) in Lincolnshire.

The town was an important trading centre, with wool and woollen cloth as the main commodities.

This exceptional book gives a wonderful insight into life in a 13th century town, and readers of all ages will be intrigued by the informative illustrations, which, with the complementary text, answer so many questions about like in medieval England.
