Go back to the thrilling time of warring knights who were prepared
to give their life in order to protect their lord and his castle.
Castles may conjure up a romantic fairy tale world; however, in
real life, during the Middle Ages, castles were fortresses,
providing shelter and protection for the lord as well as for the
peasants who lived on his land. For an army, a lord depended on
young soldiers in armor called knights who spent years at the
castle learning the skills of warfare. Author Sarah Fabiny dives
into the history of castles and how they grew from simple wood
structures to mighty fortresses in stone. She also explains who
could become a knight and what their lives were like off of the
battlefield, enjoying feasts, courting their lady loves, and
showing off in tournaments. With 80 fun black-and-white
illustrations and an engaging 16-page photo insert, readers will be
excited to read this latest addition to Who HQ!
