Description

In battle, the medieval knight was the equivalent of the modern tank.

A knight could plough his way through ranks of foot-soldiers, and on massive warhorses in tight formation, a cavalry charge was devastating.

This book covers every aspect of the role of knights in feudal Europe: their nobility, social status, rigorous training, horsemanship, military exploits, responsibilities and privileges.

Included are revered knights such as Charlemagne, Richard the Lionheart, Edward the Black Prince, and William Wallace, plus features on King Arthur, medieval poetry and courtly romances, stories of the crusaders, and folktales of rogue and errant knights.
