In a time when bravery and honor were valued above all else, a boy sets out to prove himself and save his family. It is the year 1400. In England, Henry IV has recently defeated Richard II, and there are hopes that a fresh era of peace and justice will reign with the new King. Myles Falworth, serving the Earl of Mackworth at his castle, dreams of becoming a knight and attaining glory. But his plans are rudely disrupted by the news that his father has been wrongly condemned for treason. Can Myles, young and still in training, find his family’s enemy and clear his father’s name? Filled with historical detail, Howard Pyle’s medieval adventure will delight readers young and old.
