Chivalry and Charity presents biographical sketches of two historical figures renowned for their commitment to these ideals. The first section, excerpted from ancient memoirs, recounts the life of Bertrand Du Guesclin, a celebrated French knight and military leader of the 14th century. It details his acts of courage, loyalty, and strategic brilliance during a turbulent period in European history. The second part of the book, adapted from J.B. Brown’s biography, focuses on John Howard, an 18th-century English philanthropist and prison reformer. Howard dedicated his life to investigating and improving the conditions of prisons and hospitals across Europe, advocating for humane treatment and sanitary environments. Together, these narratives illustrate the enduring virtues of chivalry and charity as exemplified by two remarkable men from different eras.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
