The Chevalier Bayard: A Study In Fading Chivalry is a historical fiction novel written by Samuel Shellabarger. The book is set in the 16th century and tells the story of Pierre Terrail, also known as the Chevalier Bayard, a French knight and military leader who was renowned for his chivalry and bravery. The novel explores the life of Bayard, from his early years as a squire to his rise as a respected knight and commander in the French army. Along the way, readers are introduced to the political and social climate of the time, including the rivalry between France and Italy, the intrigues of the papacy and the power struggles among the French nobility. The novel also delves into the personal life of Bayard, including his relationships with women and his struggle to balance his chivalric ideals with the harsh realities of war. Through vivid descriptions and compelling characters, The Chevalier Bayard offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval Europe and the fading traditions of chivalry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
