### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great pace, good story, but archaic language
  

*by S***K on Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2008*

Men of Iron is a coming-of-age story targeted towards adolescent boys.  Originally targeting this demographic in the 1890's, it seems a stretch to believe the same target can be hit now.  However, there is enough action to keep the attention of the 12-16 year old set.  This is a good thing, since the book is excellent at conveying a code which should never fall out of fashion: honor, friendship, loyalty, honesty, respect towards women, and the singular pursuit of a worthwhile goal.The story itself concerns the rags-to-respectability transformation of Miles Falworth, a noble-minded young man who is tasked with repairing his family's unfairly tarnished reputation.  The plot progression is three fights, all of which are distinguished from needless violence by being righteous endeavors which help Miles learn and accept the code of chivalry.  The first fight is born out of stubbornness, and serves to end the tyranny of the upperclassmen while teaching Miles an important lesson about leadership and cooperation.  The second fight is a joust born out of duty, and serves to give Miles an important sense of self-confidence while emphasizing the positive returns paid by loyalty to king, country, and code.  The final fight is a duel born out of legality (trial by ordeal), and serves to restore Miles' family to its rightful place, establish him as a man of means, and provides him with permission to marry his one true love.While the boyhood fight scenes drag on and the split prose technique (narrative is common, dialogue is archaic) can be awkward, the joust and final duel are compelling reads.  What the book lacks in minor character development (it is not clear that his mortal enemy is 100% evil), it makes up in plot clarity and a succinct narrative.This book is a pleasure to read.  My only regret is that Howard Pyle did not write more books to chronicle the life and times of Myles Falworth.

    Historical fiction.
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2021*

Great literature, really descriptive and realistic, but not my kind of book. If you like quite long tales about knights than you should read it. (It says 137 pages but that is a glitch)
