ReviewsMost of us have heard of Lady Godiva. "Didn't she ride naked on a horse?" is the common response. Some people may even be able to recite some additional facts: She lived in England in the 11th century, and she took the ride to protest unfair taxation. But unless they are medieval scholars, most people can't tell you more than that, which is a shame. For the real story of Lady Godiva tells of an epic battle between good and evil, between freedom and bondage, and between Christianity and paganism. It is a dramatic tale, rich in heroism, strength, forgiveness, love, honor, and most of all, faith. In Godiva , author David Rose convincingly transports us a thousand years back in time. -Tim LaHaye
