The book of the British historian Thomas Esbridge is dedicated to the greatest knight of the Middle Ages William Marshal (1147-1219) A brilliant connoisseur of the history of England from the times of the Crusades, the author recreates the era of the rule of the Plantagenet dynasty, which coincided with the century of gallant chivalry, the bright representative of which was William Marshal. The SSRIDS traced the life path of a noble husband from early childhood to a very old age, creating an exciting story about how an landless knight from a noble but impoverished kind gained the glory of an unsurpassed warrior, the winner of the knightly tournaments, the crusader and the proxy of the five English kings: Henry II, Henry of the young man Richard the Lion"s Heart, John and Henry III. The reliable story of William Marshal opens a window for us to the world of a medieval knight and allows you to witness the emergence of a new class of a military elite in one of the most difficult periods in the history of England
