Review:
(Revised version of the award-winning 1970 edition...takes into account much of the serious scholarship published during the industrious quarter-century since.) Splendidly presented... The book's great strength lies not only in its treatment of tournaments but also of literature; it also assuredly handles the interaction between chivalry and church and state... an excellent, comprehensive summary of medieval chivalry. Warmly recommended. HISTORY TODAY (SEAN MCGLYNN) (Extensively revised to take account of the abundant research on chivalry, some of it Richard Barber's own, since the book first appeared.) It combines scholarship of content with the handsomeness of a coffee-table book. MEDIUM AEVUM

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First U.S. edition, but an ex-library copy with the usual treatments and so more a reading copy than a collectible. In addition to ex-library markings, there is an bookplate on the front paste-down, the free front end paper is missing, and at least a couple of pages have penciled markings. The contents are also a bit age tanned but remain fully legible, otherwise complete, and securely bound. The dust jacket is in a clear jacket cover that has been taped to the paste-downs.
