St Mary's Books is proud to present this 2005 Folio Society edition of "Montaillou" by Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie. Housed in a black slipcase, this hardback book is bound in bright crimson cloth, with black ink lettering to the spine and silver gilt details. On the cover, one finds charming black ink illustrations of the villagers of Montaillou, designed in a medieval style. Inside, one finds i-xxiii and 414 pages of text, peppered with full colour illustrations, maps and other detail. Within the pages of this book, the reader is treated to Ladurie's fascinating history, which used the inquisitorial records of Jacques Fournier to reconstruct the lives and beliefs of the inhabitants of Montaillou, a small village in the Pyrenees. This copy is in very good condition, with few notable blemishes or imperfections it appears virtually as-new. "Montaillou" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any historian.
