Description - The Barefoot Book of Knights by John Matthews
On a sunny day in summer, the pages and squires were gathered around Master William in the courtyard of the castle to learn about the way knights behaved. 'Chivalry' began Master William, 'is the code of behaviour by which all knights try to live...' Young Tom of Warwick misses the familiar surroundings of home when he is sent away to the castle to learn about knighthood and chivalry. The castle seems cold and unfriendly, but he soon encounters kindly Master William, the armourer, whose action-packed stories of brave men and valiant deeds inspire Tom to work hard in the hopes of one day becoming a real knight. Tom's adventures, and the stories he hears from Master William about knights from many traditions will delight young would-be-knights everywhere!
