Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Best known as the creator of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was also a passionate historian, and The White Company was his favorite among his own works. This spirited account of the exploits of a crew of Saxon archers during the Hundred Years War features cameo appearances by historical figures such as Edward III and the Black Prince. Flavorful and realistic in its depictions of medieval life, the novel combines the excitement of a rugged adventure with the romance of chivalry. Unabridged republication of the 1891 edition.
