Walter Scott is wrong. Dickens is also wrong. The history of medieval England looked very different! No romanticism, continuous gray everyday life, interspersed with intrigues, adventures, crusades and other amusements familiar to the 12th century. How will you behave in such a quiet environment? Right! A sword in the right hand, a blued “Walter” in the left, a helmet on the head, a cloak with the coat of arms of one’s lord on the shoulders! They say this doesn’t happen. It’s not true, it really happens! Here is a true story that happened in 1189 AD, a story that happened with three interesting people: the son of a Norman baron, the German pilot Gunther von Reichert and an unknown Russian named Sergei Kazakov. Who is Prince John Plantagenet? Who is King Richard the Lionheart to us? For a small company of Russians, Germans and Frenchmen, these noble gentlemen are just those who need to be pulled out of trouble by the scruff of the neck.
