Synopsis
Undoubtedly the most influential chivalric handbook of the middle ages, this work articulates the ideals expressed both in medieval romance and in the crucible of the medieval battlefield - this is a work written by an accomplished knight for a knightly audience. Rendered from the Caxton 1484 translation into modern English, it is accompanied by the anonymous Ordene de Chevalerie, another important and lively medieval account of the knighting ceremony.

About the Author
Ramon Lull, a late 13th century knight, wrote a huge corpus of work, mostly controversial religious tracts following his conversion at age 21. This book represents his last secular work, intended to teach young squires how to be knights.
