Summary "The Boy and the Baron" by Adeline Knapp is a historical fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story takes place during a tumultuous time in medieval Germany, portraying the lives of children and knights against a backdrop of political unrest and lawlessness. The narrative follows a boy named Wulf, who is discovered as a young child among the osiers and raised by a kind armorer named Karl. As Wulf grows, he faces challenges and adventures tied to the noble characters of the time, including a knightly battle and the evil plots of Baron Everhardt and his nephew, Conradt. At the start of the novel, the story opens with children playing on a plateau, who witness a clash between two knights. One of these knights, seemingly in distress, drops a mysterious burden among the willow trees before being defeated. The children, fascinated, discuss the knight's intentions and plan to retrieve the treasure he left behind. Shortly after their departure, Karl the armorer discovers a young child named Wulf hidden among the bushes, who is hungry and lost. He takes Wulf into his care, thus beginning a journey that intertwines Wulf's fate with that of knights, nobility, and the turbulent world around him as the story unfolds.
