Description

*Sir Nigel* is a historical novel set during the early phase of the Hundred Years' War, spanning the years 1350 to 1356. Written in 1906, it is a fore-runner to Doyle's earlier novel *The White Company*, and describes the early life of that book's hero Nigel Loring, a knight in the service of King Edward III in the first phase of the Hundred Years' War. The character is loosely based on the historical knight Nele Loring.

First Sentence

Dame History is so austere a lady that if one, has been so ill-advised as to take a liberty with her, one should hasten to make amends by repentance and confession.
