How To Be A Tudor: A Dawn-to-Dusk Guide To Tudor Life

"Did you know the Tudors didn’t actually smell that bad? Neither did I, and I’ve read an awful lot of history books. Historian Ruth Goodman spent three months wearing period-correct linen underthings and changing them every day as the people of the era did, and she stayed relatively stench-free. It’s that level of hands-on research that makes How to be a Tudor a delight; from breakfast to brewing to the very occasional bathtime, Goodman is a charming and deeply informed guide."
