Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Constable´s Tower: Or the Times of Magna Charta Hubert De Burgh, a man of unflinching faith, courage, and loyalty, is one of the few figures that can be looked at with satisfaction in the reign of John, since he was always patient and consistent with his own principles. That he saved Arthur of Brittany from being blinded, as in the scene given by Shakespeare, has always been believed. He was then Seneschal of Poitou, and afterwards Constable of Dover Castle. His name is among those who signed Magna Charta on behalf of the King, but he did not take part with the Barons when John attacked them, holding himself bound by his faith to the King.
