Why did knights wear armour? How was it made? What was it like to fight in a battle? Why did knights joust? How did a man become a knight? This book traces the progress of a young nobleman, as he becomes first a page, then a squire, and finally a knight. It looks at the lives of the peasants who lived on the knights' estates, investigates the role of women, and considers the influence of the church
