Summary	The Elizabethan Age was a Golden Age in History, wasn't it? Terry Deary reveals that it wasn't all dazzling bling at the courts of kings and queens: the average subjects lived lives of squalor and hunger, violence and misery. The golden age was only the surface of the coin - rest was base metal. In gruesome and compelling detail, Deary disseminates the diseases you could catch, bandits you could fall prey to and laws you could fall foul of to once again uncover the usually invisible common people from our past.
