101 pp. Preface by Edward J. Fluck, illustrations by Lex Metz. A burlesque novel intended as a vindication of the heroine of Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, by the author best known for his novel Vanity Fair. In this charming satire, Thackeray reimagines the world of Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, weaving a tale of love and adventure in medieval England, featuring characters both familiar and new. This work is a loving tribute to Scott's original, while also poking fun at the conventions of romance and chivalry.
