It's a good intro to a variety of topics...the author focuses on these subjects:
1. Charlemagne and Society
2. Lords and Vassals
3. Townsmen and Traders
4. Women and Wives
5. Pilgrims and Crusaders
6. Monks and Friars
7. Schools and Scholars
8. Church Builders and Artists
9. Doctors and Patients
10. Scientists and Technologists
