Omschrijving

With Scrip and Staff: A Tale of the Children��s Crusade is a historical novel written by Elia Wilkinson Peattie and published in 1891. The story takes place in the year 1212 and follows the journey of a group of children who embark on a crusade to liberate the Holy Land from Muslim rule. The novel is based on actual events, as in the year 1212, thousands of children from France and Germany set out to march to Jerusalem, believing that their innocence and purity would be enough to conquer the Holy City.The main character of the novel is a young boy named Stephen, who is inspired by the preaching of a charismatic monk to join the Children's Crusade. Along with a group of other children, Stephen sets out on a dangerous journey across Europe, facing hunger, thirst, and hostile strangers along the way. The children's faith is tested as they encounter various challenges, including betrayal, illness, and death.The novel explores themes of faith, innocence, and the power of belief. It also sheds light on the historical context of the Children's Crusade and the social and religious factors that led to its inception. Peattie's writing style is descriptive and engaging, bringing to life the sights, sounds, and emotions of the journey. With Scrip and Staff: A Tale of the Children��s Crusade is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on a little-known chapter of history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
