Either that is the most hurredly produced textbook of all time, or the good folk at Jacaranda are grimacing at the thought of having to roll out a reprint.

Everyone knows that the knights jousted to Queen songs. It is a little known fact however that they liked to prepare for the tournaments with a little Marilyn Manson.

I mean it is kind of twee but it’s a far cry from Mc battle of Hastings or McAgincourt.
