This love story of Katherine Swynford and John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, the ancestors of much of the Rooooooooyal family sets the background of this book. Knights went to battle while peasants died of the Black Death. The Plantagenets fought and fell in love and this is perhaps the most stirring love story of the 14th century.
