[MR] Daily Life in Elizabethan England

[Garth G. Groff]

Gregory, Suzy and friends,

I received a used copy of the first edition of DAILY LIFE IN ELIZABETHAN 
ENGLAND earlier this week. My copy cost about $27, and came from a used 
book vendor, though it was ordered through the local Barnes & Noble 
store. It is actually a discarded library copy, but in very good 
condition. Although it lacks the up-to-date web links of the 2nd 
edition, I am extremely pleased to have the book in my library. I wish 
there was a similar book for 15th century Scotland.

As for the author Jeffrey Signman/Forgeng, I was watching a rerun show 
on the History Channel's MODERN MARVELS about "things that cut" a few 
days back, and he was doing the commentary on the history of swords. I 
wonder if he is still active in the SCA.

Kind regards,


Mungo Napier, Archer of Mallard Lodge
