Clean dust jacket is not price clipped, has slight wear at top spine edge, tiny closed tear at spine fold. Enclosed in new archival quality removable mylar cover. Novel of stark realism and veritable details of life as it must have been lived seven centuries ago, at the time of the Sixth Crusade--offset by the glamour of knighthood in full flower, the loveliness of fair women and the stirring action of fighting men. The story centers on one Adam Morteigne who is trusted by his best friend with the guardianship of his wife while he is away at war..
