Written in the style of traditional Arthurian legends, "Otto of the Silver Hand" is a scathing tale of the realities behind the chivalric ideal. During the course of his studies of medieval society, in preparation to write a magnificent series on King Arthur's Court, Howard Pyle shockingly discovered a mentality of cruelty and vengefulness among the legendary knights, which he brings to light in this work. However, these criticisms cannot overshadow the high sense of adventure in the story and illustrations of Otto, the gentle-natured son of a German warlord who, reclaimed from a monastery at age 12, suffers under the hands of a vengeful family rival, Baron Henry. While being held prisoner he falls in love with Baron Henry's daughter, Pauline, until he's rescued by his father and escapes his captor's grasp. The chase ensues in this epic tale of a young man overcoming hatred and strife with goodness and love. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

First published in 1891, Howard Pyle's "Men of Iron" is the realistic and engaging tale of Miles Falworth, a young squire who comes of age in the 15th century. Pyle was a classically trained illustrator and attended the Drexel Institute of Art, Science, and Industry, and founded his own school called the Howard Pyle School of Illustration and Art. As in many of his other works, Pyle added his own beautiful illustrations to "Men of Iron". These detailed illustrations, along with Pyle's exhaustive research into the customs of medieval knights, makes Miles's story come alive and feel as if it is a historical account of actual events, rather than a fictional tale. Readers of all ages will be charmed by Miles's quest to prove his father's innocence and redeem his family's honor, while also fulfilling his dream of becoming a real knight. History buffs will also find a treasure of accurate descriptions of medieval ceremonies, customs, dress, and weaponry in this tale. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
