Book Overview
The Saga Of Walther Of Aquitaine is a book written by Marion Dexter Learned and originally published in 1892. The book is a translation of a medieval German epic poem called ""Waltharius"" or ""The Tale of Walter"". The story follows the adventures of Walther, a brave and noble knight from Aquitaine, as he travels to Burgundy to serve King Gunther. Along the way, he meets and falls in love with Gunther's beautiful wife, Hilde. This love triangle sets the stage for a series of battles, betrayals, and heroic deeds as Walther and Gunther's armies clash in a struggle for power and honor. The book is a classic example of medieval epic poetry, full of chivalry, romance, and heroic deeds.
