The Young King: And Bertrand De Born is a historical novel written by Henry Clark Barlow and originally published in 1862. The story is set in medieval France and follows the life of a young king named Louis VII. Louis is a kind and just ruler, but he struggles to maintain his power in the face of political intrigue and betrayal.One of Louis' main adversaries is a powerful nobleman named Bertrand de Born. Bertrand is a cunning and ambitious man who seeks to overthrow the young king and seize the throne for himself. As Louis battles to keep his kingdom intact, he is forced to confront the treacherous Bertrand and his allies in a series of epic battles and political maneuvers.Throughout the novel, Barlow vividly portrays the brutal realities of medieval life, including the violence and bloodshed that often accompanied political conflict. He also explores themes of loyalty, honor, and duty, as Louis and his allies struggle to do what is right in the face of overwhelming opposition.Overall, The Young King: And Bertrand De Born is a gripping and well-written historical novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the tumultuous world of medieval France.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
