About this ebook
Ivanhoe is a historical fiction written by Sir Walter Scott. The story is set in England in the beginning of 13th century when King Richard I ruled the country. John, Richard's brother, has seized the throne while Richard is away fighting in Palestine to reclaim the Holy Places from the Saracens. England is also faced with another crisis as the Norman-Saxon conflict turns into a civil war. Meanwhile, Wilfred of Ivanhoe, a brave Saxon knight, who has been disinherited by his father, returns to England to marry Rowena, an Anglo-Saxon princess. But he gets drawn into the struggle between Prince John and Richard as he tries to rescue Richard who has been captured. Packed with incidents and action, Ivanhoe remains Scott's most loved novel.
