Resumen del Editor

In this indispensable volume, one of America's ranking scholars combines a life's work of research and teaching with the art of lively narration. Both authoritative and beautifully told, The Middle Ages is the full story of the thousand years between the fall of Rome and the Renaissance - a time that saw the rise of kings and emperors, the flowering of knighthood, the development of Europe, the increasing power of the Catholic Church, and the advent of the middle class.

Excellent history

Written in 1965 apparently but you wouldn't know it. Excellent survey of 1000 years and written in a narrative style akin to Bill Bryson's.

Well done

Pleasantly (peasantly? :) surprised. Narration was well paced and clear. The book itself surprised aswell, i was expecting an endless stream of names and dates, instead got a not too broad strokes overview of what the daily life, philosophy, warfare, courtship, medicine and endless crazyness of christian church politics was like - exactly what i was looking for. Could use some humour here and there and i could hear the narrator was trying to insert some sarcasm and nuance, which is always welcomed. Might listen again after some time.

Very disappointing

The author created a disjointed book with a jumble of instances from the period that give little real insight.

loved it!

I know little about history, but 90% of this was fascinating! I may listen to it again.

THE WEAVING OF TIME

I really enjoyed this overview of the Middle Ages. It seems strange to be interested in this time period with all the current digital advances. But we would not be where we are today without the knowledge and research that was developed during the Middle Ages. Many of our practices in finance were developed. Issues related to race and religious biases were initiated and still are in effect today. The narration was well paced and organized.

History of How They Lived

I found this book very interesting, as it told of how the people of that age lived. Not as bad as I had initially thought.

They still had to face the black death, years to come yet, 1300s, but life was not as primitive as I would have thought.

Interesting as it brought to light a whole new understanding of the "Middle Ages"

In depth look at the middle ages

Most historians give overviews in their history, mostly because they are covering a vast amount time and space with little room to maneuver, but Morris Bishop was more detailed in the lives of medieval Europe than most. It was interesting to know how they ate, when the ate, what the ate, the house decor, the daily lives of peasants and nobles and the intricacies of the daily lives of people on a whole. The reading by Michael Page was very good as well, he had great diction and was easy to follow. I recommend this audio book for those who want tor have a deeper understanding of how people lived throughout medieval Europe.

Informative as well as entertaining.

A very good book. Nice listen. Covered a broad expanse of society in the middle ages. Good book for anyone who finds the time interesting.
