Description:

Is the glorified reputation of the chivalrous, loyal, virtuous and larger-than-life Knight actually true, or were they ambitious, power-hungry opportunists? Hopkins compares the fictional aspects of the Knight as read and heard throughout literature, to the actual lives of real-life Knights. Lavishly illustrated, this informative and highly readable study includes over 125 color photos and reproductions.
