How to Behave Badly in Elizabethan England: A Guide for Knaves, Fools, Harlots, Cuckolds, Drunkards, Liars, Thieves, and Braggarts by Ruth Goodman

4.0

An interesting account into manners in Tudor England, showing us that what was considered rude back in the 16th Century is quite likely to be rude today. My version was narrated by the author herself and this added to the appeal of the book: the reading was full of energy and meaning and Ruth Goodman's excellent sense of humour showed through. As I make my way through the Matthew Shardlake series, this was an excellent book to read as it gave more insight into Elizabethan and Tudor society.
