Would love to discuss medieval marriage soon! Ack, it’s killing me that my books are all packed up at the moment. 🙂

Having enjoyed reading a book about Reformation family life (which included marriage and the changes that the spread of Protestanism brought to it and other aspects of life, as well as common treatments for childhood ailments and pregnancy) for a Renaissance/Reformation class, I am looking for to the more medieval side of things. I did once read a children’s book about a peasant wedding contrasted with a noble wedding (all participants were under sixteen) but I don’t remember much of it.
