Quarter 1
For those with an interest in the Middle Ages, Dan Jones’ novel, Summer of Blood, explores village life and the failings of government from the perspective of the peasants. Capturing the feeling of unrest felt by the upper and lower classes, Jones explains the causes and difficulties of the peasant’s revolt and goes into the detail of this, carefully treading the line between factual reporting and novelization. As one review of the book accurately describes; Jones takes the potentially unexciting facts and figures of the event and weaves a fantastic story into them. If you like this book, you may want to check out some of Dan Jones’ other great books on historical literature; Magna Carta: The Birth of Liberty, Hollow Crown: Wars of the Roses and the Rise of the Tudors and Realm Divided: A Year in the Life of Plantagenet England.
