Ivanhoe: Illustrated and Annotated Edition

Action. Romance. Derring-Do.

Sir Walter Scott’s Ivanhoe has it all—and for more than two hundred years, it’s been hailed as one of the greatest adventure stories ever written. Winston Churchill called it one of the “world’s greatest books,” and Charlotte Brontë famously claimed all novels after Scott’s were “worthless.”

The year is 1194, and England is a kingdom divided. The Saxons smolder beneath the heavy hand of their Norman conquerors. Only King Richard the Lionheart might heal the rift, but he’s far from home, fighting for Christendom in the Third Crusade.

Into the unrest ride Wilfred of Ivanhoe, a disinherited knight, and Rebecca, a courageous maiden whose honor defies the prejudice she faces. Swept into jousts, sieges, and shifting allegiances, they must survive in a realm where ambition is armor and betrayal strikes as swiftly as the sword.
