Knights

Knights by Andrea Hopkins (Collins & Brown, 1990). A fascinating exploration of the reality behind the legend of medieval knights. This hardcover volume challenges the romanticized notion of knights as spotless heroes of a glorious age of chivalry and romance, instead examining the complex historical reality of these larger-than-life figures who dominated the medieval world. Hopkins presents a balanced and engaging analysis of whether knights were truly noble warriors or merely ambitious landowners driven by the desire for territory and wealth. In very good condition with a clean, bright binding. An excellent addition to any medieval history collection.
