Product Description History with twice the nasty bits! The Measly Middle Ages tells you what life was really like in days of old when knights were bold, women wore tall pointy hats and the peasants were revolting. The Vicious Vikings is packed with frightening facts about these vile invaders - and their savage Saxon enemies - from cruel kings and vengeful Viking warriors to the suffering slaves, the thralls. Read on for curious quizzes, rotten recipes, gruesome games and terrible tests ...for your teacher! History has never been so horrible!

Customer Reviews:
Horrible Histories November 10, 2007 We love the Horrible Histories series. Although I couldn't use these as a stand alone history program, they give a light break in the normal historical reading. Their humor is just right for a Middle or even High School student to supplement their "serious" history reading.
Good Series January 9, 2007 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Our boys enjoy this series. They've read the Rotten Romans and the Groovy Greeks and loved them. It's an interesting way to study history.
