Hank and Bindu travel back further in history than they have ever done, with this autobiogrpahy of a late 15th Century/ early 16th Century knight. Sir Götz von Berlichingen, better known as Götz of the Iron Hand; was a German knight who served as a mercenary leader in many of the conflicts both inside and outside the Holy Roman Empire. Despite losing his right arm to a cannonball early in his millitary career, Götz served as an esteemed knight and a capable military leader for almost five decades of wars and feuds. Using this memoir as a reference, Hank and Bindu explore late Medieval and Renaissance warfare and the revolution in military tactics and technology that this period experienced.
