Review: Life In Medieval England

Life In Medieval England Life In Medieval England by Rupert Willoughby
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I have no idea why I own this book. Regardless, all my notes from it deal with etymology and places to visit one day. So here they are:

The Norman word for a "keep" was donjon, which is where we get our word Dungeon
'Knight' comes from the Anglo-saxon word cnihtas, which meant a youth or retainer.

To visit:
Rievaulx abbey
Places listed in the "Places to visit" section at the end
