Welcome
Lionised in both historical records and epic fantasies,
knights have come to represent the ideal of ever ything a
warrior should be; brave, fair, just and always ready to
defend the weak. But how much do we really know about
these fabled fighters? Where did the concept of chivalr y
and knighthood come from? What did it take to become a
knight? And were all of them really such noble and honest
men? In
Ever ything You Need To Know About Knights,
you’ll explore the origins of the knight, discover how they
trained for war and examine the weapons and armour they
relied on. You’ll then meet the fearsome figures who shaped
the Medieval period, including warriors such as Richard
the Lionheart and the Black Prince. Then it will be time to
step onto the blood-soaked battlefields of Europe, from the
frozen lakes of Russia to Agincourt and Towton, the most
deadly battle in the histor y of England.
