One again Cushman takes us to the Middle Ages, this time on
Blood and Bone Alley.  Matilda, an orphan who was raised in a
religious rich man's home, is now sent to live with a colorful lady
bonesetter.  Having being used to servants, it is a hard adjustment
to Matilda essentially being one herself in a very different life style.
  Matilda eventually makes peace with her new surroundings and
friends with many of the colorful characters in the neighborhood.
This 167 page book it told with the pithy humor of the author's
previous books.
