Fifteenth-century France, the French Revolution, and contemporary Britain all come together in this sharp-eyed novel of political expediency and intrigue. Quentin Durward is a young adventurer and soldier of the Scottish guards seeking fame and fortune in the France of Louis XI (1461-1483). Embarking upon a dangerous journey through the forest of the Ardennes seeking a name, a partner (there is a romance involving his love for Isabelle, Countess of Croye), and a position in the world, he knows little and understands less, but Scott represents his ignorance and naivete as useful to \"the most sagacious prince in Europe\"","brand":"Resounding Wind Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47149453148400,"sku":"2940150686038","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150686038_p0.jpg?v=1763751291","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150686038","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
