Chivalry

 US Edition - Houghton-Mifflin - [1935]

At the age of twenty-eight, Ser Colombino had become one of the great mercenary captains of the day, his fame spreading across the length and breadth of Italy.  But, soldier of fortune though he was, living on the bloody threshold of the Renaissance, Colombino patterned his life on the age of chivalry ... It was for this reason perhaps that he led his Company of the Dove against Verona in the service of that beautiful and dangerous woman, the Countess Euphemia of Rovieto.  Taking up arms for Lord Onorato and his daughter, the fair Samaratina, Colombino smashed the armies of Venice and fell in love with Samaratina, who was already secretly betrothed.
