Summary:
"Sylvia is a story of the Children’s
Crusade
, which occurred in the year
1212
. It is perhaps the strangest true event to have taken place in European history. I enjoyed the digging that uncovered it – buried in a dark corner of times long out of mind. It is also a story of how, throughout some of the darkest medieval times, the redeeming power and strength of a young woman’s love and intelligence prevail over poverty, brutality and bigotry. I trust you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed taking the few scattered bones of medieval Latin and Arabic texts and recreating from them this story of Sylvia: a remarkable, talented and eccentric young woman."--Inside jacket.
