The Middle Ages are usually presented as a dark time, full of cruelty and ignorance. It was indeed, but at the same time, the Middle Ages can rightly be called one of the most interesting historical epochs with unusual events and colorful personalities. For example, everyone knows about Joan of Arc, but few people know about other women who fought alongside men; moreover, some of them even received knighthoods. Everyone also knows about the knights themselves, but the image of the medieval knight is sometimes too simple and far from reality. The same is true of the kings who ruled in this era: among them were not only bloody tyrants, but also rulers who left a good memory of themselves in the people. This book presents such stories; authentic materials from medieval chronicles are harmoniously combined with fiction. With many illustrations, this book will be an entertaining read for anyone interested in Europe's past.
