What a gem. Wickham is excellent, though I've only read his more survey books, Medieval Europe and Inheritance of Rome

Btw, Gerardo Cagapisto is the guy who wrote the first of the Libri Feudorum - which is a collection of books we now take as reference, in the past in a too strict manner, for Feudal Law.

That he's the most elected Consul in the history of Milan and has shit in his name and got insulted for it by some, and is one of the fathers of the most famous feudal legal code, is all altogether an insane crossover.
