Excellent reading of interesting book
ListeninginChicago
Interesting history superbly read by Cathy Barratt. I learned a lot that I had not known before, and gained a better perspective on the selectivity of chivalry. Would recommend this for anyone interested in filling in some of the historical details that they missed in school.
Very enjoyable!
