A Unique Vindication of Bancroft at Heidelberg
The tale follows Evan Bancroft a Virginia youth who pledged not to duel to his mother but faced a dangerous showdown with his English rival Horcut. After years abroad Bancroft encounters Horcut on a narrow path and proposes a fatal test to prove bravery with one man passing inside and the other outside a cliff’s edge. The outcome restores Bancroft’s reputation as he earns an ovation on return to Heidelberg.
