A gift book in a leather cover "Black Arrow" by R.Stevenson, in a case

The "Time of Troubles" in England, the XV century, the War of the Roses for the English throne. Sir Daniel Brackley, the guardian of the young Richard Shelton, fights on one side or the other, weighing his benefits, and Richard implicitly believes him, until one meeting after another opens his eyes to the unscrupulousness and treachery of the one who replaced his father - but also took over his estate. Grandiose battles and tavern fights, escapes and kidnappings, disguises and revelations, sympathy that grows into true love, humor and subtle psychologism - in this novel there is not a single "cardboard" character, not a single protracted scene, not a single superfluous storyline.
Who will like it: everyone who loves a twisted plot with dangerous adventures, disguises, battles, betrayals, revelations and real romance.

This edition of the works has earned a reputation as the best in the history of printing execution. The binding, decorated with gold and pancake embossing, and a three-sided gold edging give the publication a stylish and respectable look at the same time.
