The Iron Cavalier

Texte du rabat

Elizabethan England and the war with Spain. Plots, counterplots and secret couriers. Romance ashore and the Armada battles at sea. The whole color-filled panorama of the momentous 16th Century, its heroes and heroines, its explorers Sir Francis Drake and Sir John Hawkins, the mighty King Philip of Spain, the rival queens of England and Scotland, Elizabeth and Mary. And a swashbuckling young English nobleman, George Fitzwilliam, the Iron Cavalier, who outwitted and skewered his enemies, tempestuously courted the beautiful Anne Crofts, and tried to serve two Crowns at the same time . . . Donald Barr Chidsey, the master of richly-textured adventure and romance, has written his most high-spirited and exciting novel.
