The word on Pilgrim and Secular Badges...,
By Da Vinci (Terra Firma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Medieval Pilgrim and Secular Badges (Hardcover)
Pilgrims badges were big business in the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th centuries. As it has always been people's tendency to adopt a "holier than thou" attitude, and the purchase of a badge or pin that would show that you had visited some shrine or other fulfills that need perfectly.
Mitchiner's book is considered by most to be the premier reference on these badges. This book is great, with many full sized photos and accurate descriptions. If you are interested in these badges, and are only going to get one book, this is the book for you. If you don't think you are interested in these....buy it anyway and put it on your coffee table. Surprise your friends. |
