catsalive (Australia) (2008/11/23): back cover: The Age of Chivalry, 1132-1159... This rich, epic saga tells of the men and women who lived in the High Middle ages -- re-creating the loves, the violence, the beliefs and forbidden desires of an extraordinary era of human history. Here are the high and the low, the mighty and the poor -- from the rulers of the lush, rich province of Aquitaine to the paupers and beggars who haunted the countryside, pleading for scraps of food. From the rigid traditions of the castle to the free, romantic life of the travelling troubadours, from the privacy of a maiden's bedchamber to the bloody battlefields where the Crusaders met their foes, the Age of Chivalry is richly drawn and vividly brought to life in these pages. The Storm and the Sword is a powerful, courtly saga -- a song of love -- a human drama -- and a story that lives and breathes with the incredible power of human passion.
