Chivalry

More about the book

The book presents a collection of tales attributed to Nicolas de Caen, written in 1470 during his time as a dependent of the Duke of Burgundy. It highlights the author's potential biases, particularly favoring the Yorkists and Burgundians while recounting events involving the houses of Lancaster and Valois. The reteller acknowledges significant abridgment and alteration of the original narratives, notably in "The Story of the Satraps," where character perspectives are modified for narrative convenience.
