Ivanhoe

A Romance
A historical fiction novel based in England during the Middle Ages. One of Sir Walter Scott’s most popular works, it has been credited with increasing the interest in chivalric romance and medievalism. The book contains memorable descriptions of outlaws, knightly tournaments, and a witch trial.  Many famous historical figures such as Richard the Lion Heart, King John, and Robin Hood appear in the story.

First published in 1819, this edition is derived from the book published in 1842 with 86 black and white illustrations.  As always, this edition is complete and unabridged including all footnotes by the author.
