The Falconer: A Story of Frederick II of Hohenstaufen by Christopher Sblendorio
13th CENTURY MEDIEVAL LIFE
The Falconer is an intricately researched and wonderfully written book about the life and Times of Frederico the II, who became Holy Roman Emperor in the 13th century.
The Middle Ages in Europe were a time of both turmoil and heroic deeds, and both are tied up in Frederick‘s story, which is told here, with humor and warmth. Many historians call Frederick the II the ‘first European’ or the ‘first modern ruler’ because of the style of government he established. He was a serious patron of science and the arts, promoting literature and poetry during his rule.
This book will bring the medieval period alive for children in the 11 to 12 year old range who may be studying the medieval time frame in school. Â
