This vintage book contains Sir Walter Scott's 1825 novel, “The Talisman”. It is the second novel in Scott's “Tales of the Crusaders” series and a sequel to “The Betrothed”. Political intrigue and scheming is threatening to bring the Third Crusade to a end as King Richard the Lionheart's health deteriorates at an ever-increasing rate. Brimming with betrayal, redemption, and double-crossing, “The Talisman” constitutes a must-read for fans of historical fiction and is not to be missed by collectors of Scott's seminal work. Contents include: “Sir Walter Scott”, “Introduction to The Talisman”, “Appendix to Introduction”, “Tales of the Crusaders. Tale II.— The Talisman”, “Chapter I”, “Chapter II”, “Chapter III”, et cetera. Sir Walter Scott (1771 – 1832) was a seminal Scottish playwright, poet, and historical novelist whose novels were and remain to be widely read and enjoyed the world over. Other notables works by this author include: “Ivanhoe”, “Rob Roy”, “Old Mortality”, “The Lady of the Lake”, “Waverley”, “The Heart of Midlothian”, and “The Bride of Lammermoor”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
