Summary

Set in the middle of the 14th century, Sir Nigel is a swashbuckling story of the eponymous hero as he seeks his fortune and the hand of his lady-love in England and France in the early part of the Hundred Years War.

It is full of high romance and chivalry, battles and brutality, humour and sheer rumbustiousness as the impoverished Nigel Loring and his lascivious attendant Aylward seek their fortunes. Edward III, the Black Prince, Sir John Chandos - one of the original Knights of the Garter - all make their appearances in one of the favourite books from the creator of Sherlock Holmes.

Great tale of gallantry of old

Loved it. In an age of dark synicism this is a Ray of honourable light. Escapism at its best, stories from a forgotten time.

True escapism

Sir Nigel and the White Company bring the medieval life of a galant knight to life. The story is full of thrills and excitement a true boys own tale.
