What books or materials have introduced all aspects of medieval Europe, and the more detailed the better?
In my experience, reading a profound book is better than reading a superficial introduction.

British Manor Life (1150 ——1400 Study on Farmers' Living Conditions)

I have made a very detailed study on the economy, customs and laws of English medieval manors. After reading it, I can extend my understanding of European feudal system.

The above is the economic part. Regarding the war, I recommend Voltaire's Theory of Customs. Although it is not systematic enough compared with modern works, it has a lot of first-hand information and excellent writing style.

If you want to read widely, you'd better choose some American university history textbooks, all of which are first-class academic works.

For example, the history of western civilization, the history of European civilization and so on.

Germany has an excellent history of European weathering, but the cruelty of history is too detailed for some people to bear.

In short, the only criterion is to choose some works that enjoy a wide reputation in the West. It's best not to read the works written by China. If the level is poor, it is often because of the influence of sickle and axe.
