Men of Iron
By Howard PylePublisher Description
First published in 1891, Howard Pyle’s “Men of Iron” is the realistic and engaging tale of Miles Falworth, a young squire who comes of age in the 15th century. Pyle was a classically trained illustrator and attended the Drexel Institute of Art, Science, and Industry, and founded his own school called the Howard Pyle School of Illustration and Art. As in many of his other works, Pyle added his own beautiful illustrations to “Men of Iron”. These detailed illustrations, along with Pyle’s exhaustive research into the customs of medieval knights, makes Miles’s story come alive and feel as if it is a historical account of actual events, rather than a fictional tale. Readers of all ages will be charmed by Miles’s quest to prove his father’s innocence and redeem his family’s honor, while also fulfilling his dream of becoming a real knight. History buffs will also find a treasure of accurate descriptions of medieval ceremonies, customs, dress, and weaponry in this tale. This edition includes a biographical afterword.

“It was actually really interesting. I had to read it for school and found it quite enjoyable. I would recommend it for anyone who likes knightly adventures and boyhood fun.”
