Howard PyleA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more.
Myles Falworth arrives at Devlen Castle almost entirely unaware of the circumstances surrounding his father’s exile and the potential danger he faces as his son. Why do you think his father chose not to reveal any of these details? Does this lack of details put Myles in danger, perpetuate his growth, or both?
Consider the antagonists of Men of Iron (such as Walter Blunt and the Earl of Alban). What traits do they share? What similar actions do they take, and how does Howard Pyle identify them as the antithesis of chivalric?
What tenants do you think Myles and Francis Gascoyne included in their code of conduct for the Knights of the Rose? Support your answers with evidence from the text.
