Lord Geoffrey's Fancy by Alfred Duggan

Lord Geoffrey's Fancy is a beautifully detailed study of the world of the thirteenth century - a world of knights and crusaders, of courtly love and chivalry. Closely following historical fact, Duggan portrays the fate and fortunes of one Sir Geoffrey de Bruyere, 'the best knight in all Romanie'. He traces his story through hunts and brightly coloured jousting tournaments to gallant battles, fighting for God and for justice against the Infidel Turk.
Alfred Duggan was born in Argentina in 1903. He was educated at Eton College and Oxford. He worked for the British Natural History Museum collecting specimens and travelled extensively pursuing his job for the museum. From 1938-1941, when he was discharged as medically unfit, he served in the London Irish Rifles and saw active service in Norway. His first book was published in 1950.
