A fool & his money: life in a partitioned medieval town

Trama

To read it is like opening a shutter onto a sunlit medieval street teeming with characters, talk and noise. Few books have captured the atmosphere of daily medieval life as well or as movingly as A Fool and His Money. Rodez, in southern France, was divided for centuries by a feud between two masters.
