[SCA] persona resources
Dear SCA Lazyweb,
(Ok, not completely; I'm doing my own work on this too.)
What are your favorite accessible, beginner-friendly resources for persona development? I'm especially interested in suggestions for specific periods. If a beginner is interested in the Crusader era or the Italian renaissance or early Celts (for example) and wants to do more than pick a name and wear roughly the right clothing, where would you send him? Aside from Google and "talk to so-and-so", I mean. :-)
(I've been asked to teach a class for newcomers in a couple weeks and want to hand out a list of sources they could try, sorted by period where appropriate.)

There are others, but those two are reliable and have depth.
