Books
Enter the real Wolf Hall! We know about the big picture - the court of Henry VIII, the break from Rome, Elizabeth I and the Spanish Armada. But what was life really like for a commonor like you or me? With this time traveller's guide to Tudor England, learn how to eat, sleep, wash, say your prayers, plough fields and write letters like a Tudor. Without banks, discover that credit is dependent on your appearance and fashion is the realm of men. Because sheep are miniature and prices are high, learn to mend your clothes, your most prized possessions, yourself, and much more.
