Sir Nigel
Sir Nigel, published in 1906, is Arthur Conan Doyle's historical romance of the Hundred Years' War and a prequel to his earlier novel The White Company. Nigel Loring is the last of an old Surrey family, poor but fiercely proud, who lives with his grandmother near Waverley Abbey and longs to win honor in the service of Edward III. To earn the hand of the woman he loves he vows to perform three noble deeds, and the quest carries him from local quarrels with the monks to Calais, a sea fight against the Spaniards and the campaigns in Brittany and France. Doyle mixes careful research with chivalry, humor and hard fighting. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
