The Lute Player
Norah Lofts
Out of the courts of
twelfth-century England strode the legendary figure of Richard of
England - leading his knights onto the Saracen battlefields - inspired
by a vision of the Holy Land.Here is the story of the Soldier-King and
the Third Crusade - of his strange, ill-fated union with Berengaria,
Princess of Navarre - of his mother, the She-Wolf, Eleanor of Aquitaine
who loved her son with a frantic, possessive pride. And, above all, here
is the story of the minstrel whose life was linked with that of the
King - the story of Blondel - the Lute Player.
