How hard was it, really, just to stay alive in the fourteenth century? You wake up in an English village around 1350 and find out, one hazard at a time. 

The smoke-filled house. The sewer you drink from. The splinter that becomes a grave. The law that tells you what to wear, and the plague is waiting at the far edge of the century to erase half of everyone you know. But this isn't just a catalogue of horrors: it's the story of resilient, funny, gloriously alive people who danced at weddings and earned their old age the hard way. 

Could you survive a single day? The bar, I promise you, isn't high.
