Putting the Fact in Fantasy

An assortment of interesting essays about subjects useful for fantasy writers: jobs for women in medieval Europe, fatal chest wounds, standing armies, cultural exchange between nations throughout history, the origins of chocolate, archery being hard work, realistic hikes, Hollywood horse myths, and much more. Lots to enjoy and mull over, even among the subjects not relevant to my own projects. I listened to the audiobook, which was engagingly read.
