Crusading fever is in the air again, and Henry III decides it’s his turn to give it a try. This is only the beginning of a series of calamitous royal decisions, including a hair-brained scheme to conquer Sicily. Soon, his barons, led by Simon de Montfort, have had enough. They decide to take matters into their own hands and march on Westminster.
