Marmion: A Tale of Flodden Field

When Lord Marmion becomes obsessed with a rich woman named Clara, he enacts a plan to exile her fiancé, but is surprised when his current mistress seeks her own revenge. Sir Walter Scott’s Marmion: A Tale of Flodden Field is written in elegant verse. Depicting the epic Battle of Flodden in 1513, this historical romance is riveting and dramatic.
