Il Libro del Sarto is a manuscript that belonged to a family of Milanese tailors. It collects the work of at least three individuals, beginning in the 1540s, with additions into the 1570s and bound in the 1580s.
I’ve been involved in medieval recreation since 1975. I contributed to a manual for living history that later grew into the book Daily Life in Chaucer’s England, and have written and illustrated several articles on the medieval tournament.
This blog is mostly a platform for my other writing about the Middle Ages, and whatever else moves me: other history, movies, SF, space exploration, contemporary politics and economics. You can find my livejournal feed at Willscommonplac
