In some of his best books — like "Ingenious Pain," his first, about an 18th-century doctor, and the more recent "Pure," about an engineer in pre-revolutionary France trying to clean up an ancient cemetery — he brings off the Mantel trick of plunging you so deeply into the past that before long you take it completely for granted.
