The Middle Ages: Power, Faith, and the Making of the Modern World

The explanation is very clear, the language is humorous, and it is very suitable as an introductory book to understand the Middle Ages.

It is really refreshing after reading this book. It turns out that the Middle Ages was so diverse and wonderful, and the chaotic and fuzzy impression was broken. The author unfolds it in the form of a "museum", and the writing language is vivid and not boring. He writes this period of history very interestingly, making people want to read it again. If you want to understand modern Western civilization, the key lies in the Middle Ages, because civilization evolved through history, and everything can be explained by going back to the beginning.

Awesome, one of the best European histories I've ever seen

It can absorb knowledge from multiple levels and angles of medieval society in a simple, clear and systematic way. The book is full of references, including essays and novels, taking into account both professionalism and interest. You can quickly understand the historical situation through enjoyable reading.

Finally finished reading, the Middle Ages is really a rich mine

"It is not just the bright silver of the knights that counteracts the dark background of the early Middle Ages, but the colorful colors from which all forces are rushing." I was shocked by this statement.

Just like Game of Thrones, I saw the intersection of power and faith. Moreover, the author also continued the style of "Outline of Western History" and "Outline of Roman History", which gave me a deeper understanding of the Middle Ages. I think this book is not only a narration of history, but also an inspiration to our modern world. It is really worth reading!

Excellent writing, highly recommended

Recommendations and comparisons with my own ideas have solved a lot of problems, but they have also created problems that I have combined with other aspects, which is interesting and makes people think deeply.

It looks good, I bought the physical book and collected it [Like][Like][Like]

This is my first time reading a book about the Middle Ages, and the author's writing is very fascinating.

It's quite good. If you are interested, you can try to read it several times.

It clears away the fog of the Middle Ages and provides readers with a clear understanding of the politics, economy, and military of the Middle Ages. Even a cursory reading will unconsciously establish a logical chain.

Real and objective, multi-dimensional description, clear structure and substantial content. Can help more book friends

It's very beautiful, references classics but is not cluttered.
