Imagine you were transported back in time to Tudor England and had to start a new life there, without smartphones, internet or social media. Embark on a journey to Tudor England and learn engaging tips and insights for navigating the challenges of the 16th century.
When transport means walking or, if you’re lucky, horseback, how will you know where you are or where to go? Where will you live and where will you work? What will you eat and what shall you wear? And who can you turn to if you fall ill or are mugged in the street, or God forbid if you upset the king? In a period when execution by beheading was the fate of thousands how can you keep your head in Tudor England?
All these questions and many more are answered in a new guidebook for time-travelers: How to Survive in Tudor England. A handy self-help guide with tips and suggestions to make your visit to the 16th century much more fun, this lively and engaging book will help the reader deal with the new experiences they may encounter and the problems that might occur.
We're thrilled to welcome author and historian, Toni Mount, for a virtual program as she discusses how it was done and what we would need to do if time travel ever became a thing and we had an opportunity to travel back.
This program will be recorded. Everyone who registers will receive a link to the recording.
This program is in collaboration with Ashland Public Library.
