The Last Duel

<p><strong>THE <em>NEW YORK TIMES </em>BESTSELLER</strong><br /><strong><u><br /></u>Now a major motion picture directed by Ridley Scott starring Matt Damon, Adam Driver and Jodie Comer.</strong><br /><br />In 1386, a few days after Christmas, a massive crowd gathered at a Paris monastery to watch two men fight a duel to the death. A trial by combat to prove which man's cause was right in God's sight.<br /><br />The dramatic story of the knight, the squire and the lady unfolds during the tumultuous fourteenth century. A time of war, plague and anarchy, as well as of honour, chivalry, and courtly love.<br /><br />The notorious quarrel appears in many histories of France, but no writer has recounted it in full, until now.</p>
