The Infant's Skull

This is a fascinating story of French serf life around the year 1000 A.D., during an 'End of the World' hysteria. There are historic topics that are touched on but not developed related regicide and the Millennial hysteria of Christians believing the world is to end. The rich give their wealth and lands to a greedy church to obtain heavenly peace. The poor stop working the land thinking the end of their misery is at hand.
