The 'knight in shining armour' has become a staple figure in popular culture and his exploits in battle and tournament are familiar themes in film and fiction. But what was the knight really like? In this richly illustrated book the author, an authority on medieval military history, describes how knights evolved over four centuries of English and European history, the battles they fought, their lives both in peacetime and on campaign, their weapons, armour and clothing, and the code and mythology of chivalry.
