I am therefore to request that you will name a place and hour of meeting.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo runs a typical challenge to a duel from the early 19th century; formal, polite - and potentially fatal. Duelling is deeply imbedded in our collective consciousness, through numerous films and novels; it evokes a golden past, of gentlemen defending their honour (or that of their wives) in the early morning light of a wooded glade; of frockcoats, rapiers and pistols.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the duel's roots in medieval chivalric tournaments, to the unforgiving code of honour in which death was preferable to shame, this fascinating history recounts - with the aid of numerous vivid eye-witness accounts - all the drama and sheer terror of the duel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little, Brown UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44892228878565,"sku":"NP9780749929961","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/O_0161f649-153d-4f29-95af-456e4f1cd3ea.jpg?v=1773104545","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/pistols-at-dawn-isbn-9780749929961","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
