The Last Duel: A True Story of Crime, Scandal, and Trial by Combat in Medieval France by Eric Jager
4.0
Very well written and an excellent presentation of a story that has been warped across time and history. The author makes a valiant attempt to make an uncomfortable part of France's history easy to digest and understand.
While I greatly enjoyed all of the background and foundational information I know some people will find the book slow or dense.
