As its title suggests this book deals with the history and impact of monastic life in the Middle Ages. Of particular interest to me was the Dissolution of the monasteries during the reign of Henry VIII in England. I am a student of History and found this book both informative, instructive and interesting. While written with a view to an academic audience the writing is accessible and engaging, and I believe could also capture the interest and imagination of those who are not scholars.
