| Summary | "Bayard: the Good Knight Without Fear and Without Reproach" by Christopher Hare is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This narrative centers around Pierre de Bayard, a celebrated knight of the Renaissance known for his remarkable valor and sense of honor. The opening chapters introduce Bayard's origins, his upbringing in the Castle of Bayard, and his early aspirations to become a knight, portraying the values of chivalry and the traditions of the time. The opening of the book vividly details Bayard's childhood and the circumstances surrounding his early ambitions. It begins with a heartfelt scene in which his ailing father gathers his sons to discuss their future paths. Young Pierre expresses a desire to follow in the footsteps of his ancestors in the profession of arms, reflecting his familial legacy and noble aspirations. The narrative further captures the emotional farewells between Bayard and his family as he embarks on his journey to serve the Duke of Savoy, laying the groundwork for his future exploits as a knight. Through rich descriptions and a focus on personal virtues, the story invites readers into the world of chivalry and the life of a young man determined to fulfill his noble destiny.
