Set in the 15th century, a young squire, Myles Falworth, seeks to become a knight and to redeem his father’s honor. Myles trains under the Earl of Mackworth to become a chivalrous knight. Once he obtains his knighthood, Myles gains honor for himself by winning jousting matches and serving in France. Upon returning to England Myles must face a family enemy, the Earl of Alban. The book provides great detail of the life, training, and equipment of knights of the era.
