"The Magna Charta" by Geoffrey Howard delves into the historical context and significance of the Magna Carta, a groundbreaking document sealed in 1215 that laid the foundation for modern democracy and the rule of law. The narrative unfolds with King John of England facing rebellion from his barons, who demand limits on his absolute power. Through vivid characters and a rich depiction of medieval politics, the story explores themes of justice, liberty, and the struggle for rights, illustrating how this pivotal charter marked a turning point in the relationship between rulers and the governed, resonating through centuries of history.
