Known World Handbook

The Known World Handbook is a valuable resource to newcomers. It is available from the SCA stock clerk at: https://secure.sca.org/cgi-bin/stockclerk under other SCA publications. It is also often available from some merchants at events.

The handbook contains many short introductory articles on a wide variety of topics, and has set many a person on the right path. However, some of the articles are beginning to show their age - it's a good idea to consult other resources as well.
