France Editorial Review
**** "A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry" by Sir Geoffroi de Charny, translated by Elspeth Kennedy, offers a compelling glimpse into the values, struggles, and complexities of knighthood during the turbulent times of the Hundred Years’ War. This primary source document stands out for its authenticity and depth, allowing readers to step into the mindset of a medieval knight. Charny’s perspective is both enlightening and sobering, illustrating the tensions between the romanticized ideals of chivalry and the harsh realities of war. Readers have expressed that the book serves as more than just historical commentary; it captures the duality of the knightly experience, blending honor, bravery, and the distressing contexts in which these traits were tested. The book does an excellent job of balancing the glorification of chivalry with the violent backdrop of its existence, as highlighted by Charny's candid discussion of themes such as violence, plunder, and honor in battle. While some may find it a challenging read, as indicated by certain reviews, the work is praised for its detailed insights that are useful not only for historians and enthusiasts of medieval times but also for fantasy writers looking for authentic depictions of chivalrous ideals. The introduction by Richard W. Kaeuper further enriches the text, making it an indispensable addition to any history lover’s library. For those seeking to delve into genuine medieval thought and philosophical explorations of valor and knightly conduct, this book is highly recommended. **
