The Challenge of Bordeaux: Peter of Aragon versus Charles of Anjou

Sometimes history provides a glimpse of epic moments in which the gallantry of arms is demonstrated through the courage and honour of soldiers and knights fighting for their faith, their king, or their country. However, at other times cunning or betrayal overrule bravery. In 1283, an incident known as The Challenge of Bordeaux could have been an opportunity for the glory of chivalry to shine brightly, but unfortunately, this event would have anything but a glorious conclusion.
