Reviews

"Illuminates the evolution of knighthood" -- New York Times Book Review"A carefully researched, concise, readable, and entertaining account of an institution that remains a part of the Western imagination." -- Los Angeles Times"Splendid ... This detailed look, focusing as it often does on individual men, shows the knight in a new and more interesting light, whether Roland or Galahad." -- Washington Post"Gies's writing is fresh and direct, her scholarship is exact, and she approaches her subject with excitement." -- The New Yorker
