Ernie's Take:
The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England by Ian Mortimer is a humorous, yet exhaustive, look at the fashions and foibles of the era of the Virgin Queen and Shakespeare. Mortimer covers everything from 16th century life preservers (pig’s bladders) to religion (a three-way fight between Catholicism, Anglicanism and radical Presbyterianism) to fashion and health. If you ever wanted to travel back in time and experience the atmosphere of the Bard’s plays for yourself, this is the book for you.
