Скачать или смотреть The Knight Who Never Lost a Duel – William Marshal’s True Story

Meet William Marshal, the undefeated medieval knight—500+ duels and tournaments, 0 defeats. From brutal tournament melees and trial by combat to leading a cavalry charge at the Battle of Lincoln (1217) at nearly 70 years old, Marshal rose from obscurity to become the greatest knight in history. He served the Plantagenet kings—Henry II, Richard the Lionheart, and King John—then ruled as regent for Henry III, defending England, reissuing the Magna Carta, and saving a kingdom. See real medieval armor (chainmail hauberk, kite shield, sword and lance), warhorse (destrier) tactics, heraldry, castles, feudal warfare, chivalry, and the code of honor that made him a legend. Marshal captured rival knights for ransom, mastered jousting, and never fell in single combat. In 1219, on his deathbed, he took the Templar habit—closing the life of the perfect knight. This is the true story behind the myths: epic Middle Ages history, legendary warriors, and medieval battles—in one cinematic short.
