Though the articles in this book are fascinating and cover many aspects of medieval culture, its primary virtue is in the pictures. With 303 illustrations (93 in quality color) we are presented with the middle ages as seen by period people. The book is arranged topically rather than chronologically, but a chronological chart covering 1000-1500 aids in putting things in that context.
