Sir Wilfred of Ivanhoe is a Saxon knight whose allegiance to King
Richard and love for Lady Rowena severely damages his relationship
with his father. He is disinherited from his family and must find a
respectable way to re-enter society. In twelfth-century England,
tensions between the Saxons and Normans are at an all-time high.
Following the Third Crusade, Sir Wilfred Ivanhoe, a Saxon knight,
offers his support to the Norman King Richard, which pits him
against his father, Cedric. Ivanhoe is also in love with the
beautiful Lady Rowena, whom Cedric has promised to another. Due to
his actions, the knight loses his family claim and is left to fend
for himself. Ivanhoe chooses to conceal his identity, entering a
tournament to regain his honor and the admiration of Lady Rowena. A
classic tale informed by historical events, Ivanhoe is one of Sir
Walter Scott's most enduring stories. It was famously adapted in
1952 as a feature film starring Robert Taylor, Elizabeth Taylor and
Joan Fontaine. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally
typeset manuscript, this edition of Ivanhoe is both modern and
readable.
