Set in medieval England after the Crusades, the novel pits Saxons against Normans through the adventures of the knight Ivanhoe: tournaments, sieges and kidnappings intertwine with the presence of Richard the Lionheart and Robin Hood, in a tale of loyalty, love and justice.

For readers of historical fiction and adventure classics, with an interest in medieval England and legendary characters such as Robin Hood.
Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet, was a Scottish novelist, poet and historian. Many of his works remain classics of European and Scottish literature. He is known for his Waverley novels (1814–1831), which were, for nearly a century, among the most popular and widely read novels in Europe. He is also known for his narrative poems Marmion (1808) and The Lady of the Lake (1810). He greatly influenced European and American literature.
