First Paperback Edition, Fifth Printing "This richly detailed account offers an intimate view of everyday life in medieval England that seems at once surprisingly familiar and yet at odds with what many experts have told us. Barbara A. Hanawalt argues that the biological needs served by the family do not change and that the methods fourteenth and fifteenth-century peasants used to cope with such problems as providing for the newborn and the aged, controlling premarital sex, and alleviating the harshness of their material environment in many ways correspond with our twentieth-century solutions" [from the back cover] ISBN: 0195045645 Book is in Near Fine Condition: pages bright, clean, tight, and unmarked; back cover with light corner crease.
