Join us in stepping back to a time when death could come along in the most unexpected of ways. Strange Ways to Die in the Tudor Ages pushes aside the mists of time to uncover the odd, unsettling and even amusing ways that people met their end in a century rife with superstition, violence and the constant threat of farmyard animals.
From Viking warriors felled by cheese to kings who perished in toilet-related mishaps, Strange Ways to Die in the Dark Ages uncovers the strange, often absurd realities of life and death in an age of superstition, blood feuds, and very questionable medical advice. Packed with dark humour, historical oddities, and stories so strange they simply must be true, this is history as you’ve never read it before — deadly, disturbing, and delightfully ridiculous!
