A must-have companion!

I can't believe there are no reviews of this delightful tome. Although it's not indispensable to the enjoyment of the Chronicles themselves, it's actually enjoyable as read-by-itself item. Anyhow, how can anyone fail to want this delightful book after reading through 20 chronicles and one prequel! One's library would not be complete without it. It's full of wonderful "chronicle" information as well as historical information; it answers questions you didn't even think to ask. ONE CAUTIONARY REMARK: Whiteman does "give away" some of the endings in his explanation of who's who, what's what, and where's where; therefore, it's not suitable for looking things up while one is actually in the midst of one of Brother Cadfael's investigations. Otherwise, get it, read it, enjoy it!
