About this book
The story
During the Middle Ages, tournaments and jousting were both an occasion for public festivities and a way of training knights.
Describing various types of combat with the use of primary source material and magnificent illuminated manuscripts, this book provides a look into the jousts and tournaments that entertained the people and trained knights for war.
Though considered mock combat, many knights lost their lives during these jousts and melees.
