The Promise of Runnymede: June 1215 A.D. The Magna Carta is signed in England

By Franco Nicoli

In the turbulent June of 1215, England is a land teetering on the brink of revolution. Oppressed by the unfair taxes and abuses of the despotic King John Landless, the population - from barons to peasants - is in turmoil. 'The Promise of Runnymede' takes us into a time of political intrigue, heroism and betrayal, where the dream of justice defies the weight of tyranny.
Through the eyes of unforgettable characters, such as the fearless Lord Richard de Clare and the restless King John, the novel explores the events that led to the birth of Magna Carta, the document that changed the course of history forever. In a crescendo of tension and drama, we follow the fortunes of rebellious barons, secret alliances and epic battles as the fate of England is played out on the fields of Runnymede.
With a narrative rich in historical detail and compelling prose, it captures the essence of a pivotal moment, weaving politics, courage and ambition into a story that never ceases to surprise. 'The Promise of Runnymede ' is more than a historical novel: it is a thrilling journey into the heart of the Middle Ages, where freedom and human dignity asserted themselves against all odds.
For those who love tales of heroism and conspiracy, and for those who wish to discover the roots of a freedom conquered with sacrifice, this book is a must-read. A work that illuminates the past and inspires the present.
