Description

Cuthbert de Lance is only a page boy, but his bravery and courage make him stand out among the Earl of Evesham’s men-at-arms as King Richard I leads another Crusade. But the path to the Holy Land is fraught with dangers, and Cuthbert has a lot to learn before he would ever make a good knight. Even before they come into conflict with the pitiless Saracens, the youth has made a mortal enemy of the unscrupulous Count Jacquelin. Eventually what once seemed a grand adventure in the Holy Land takes a greater toll than Cuthbert could have imagined.

This adventurous Logos Library classic describes the massive scope of the Third Crusade and the men involved from Saxon outlaws to Saladin (A.D. 1189-1192). The Logos Library series presents good stories that Christian kids want to read in a colorful, well-crafted, and affordable way. Unlike many other thrift editions, each book features typesetting and interior design that prioritize readability as well as price.
