    Wait--I'm sure there are volumes written already, eh?
    I'd like to read one! You know, we get somebody doing that kind of research ask 20 questions over on the renfaire forums from time to time, but I think it becomes a bigger task than they think. At least I don't think anyone has ever shown us any results!

    I have seen a book disscussed, called "Renaissance Festivals: Merrying the Past and Present" that claims to be a anthropological look at the Maryland renfaire, but I have not read it.

    We don't get these Renaissance Festivals over here in the UK and I feel we are really missing out on something
    Chas, you really must come to Scotland for the Hawick Reivers Festival, last weekend in March.

    I was totally unaware, Alex. I have just looked it up on line and put it in my diary. This looks like so much fun.

    Regards
