The military history section (U) and the food section (TX) are right across from each other in the library. This can only end in disaster. Or a thesis.

I just spent the last hour running around the library looking up books for my Medieval England paper. Most of them were on the fourth floor, joy, but a few were on the first and second floors, and I stopped on the third floor to get a book I want to read for kicks. And yes, these were all military history books; a lot of them were just with the history of, you know, England. Thus them being on the fourth floor instead of down on the first floor with general military history. And I think the one on the second floor was an art history book? It was about knights' effigies.

*dreamily* And then I found a handful of medieval cookbooks. Which are completely unrelated to military history, though I'm sure I could find a way. After all, conquest has a long and proud history of bringing new foods to countries!

Sadly, this is irrelevant to medieval England.
