Omschrijving

The Tavern Knight is a historical novel written by the renowned author, Rafael Sabatini. The story is set in the 17th century and follows the life of Sir Crispin Galliard, a former soldier who becomes a highwayman after being wrongly accused of a crime he did not commit. The novel begins with Sir Crispin's escape from prison and his journey to the small town of Marlborough, where he meets the beautiful Lady Barbara, who is being forced into a loveless marriage with the cruel Lord Wolverstone. Sir Crispin, who is now known as the Tavern Knight, decides to help Lady Barbara escape from her fate and the two of them become embroiled in a dangerous adventure. As they travel through the English countryside, Sir Crispin and Lady Barbara encounter a range of characters, including other highwaymen, soldiers, and nobles. They also face numerous challenges, such as being pursued by Lord Wolverstone's men and dealing with the treacherous politics of the time. Throughout the novel, Sabatini skillfully weaves together themes of love, honor, and loyalty, as well as providing an accurate depiction of life during the 17th century. The Tavern Knight is a thrilling and engaging read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and adventure stories.It was not to be his good fortune, however, to be in the earlier work of the day. Until afternoon he was kept within the walls of Worcester, chafing to be where hard knocks were being dealt - with Montgomery at Powick Bridge, or with Pittscottie on Bunn's Hill. But he was forced to hold his mood in curb, and wait until Charles and his advisers should elect to make the general attack.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
