HB 214 pp + Plates B&W & ColourPublished Price £28 Second only to the Garter among British Orders of Chivalry, the Order of the Bath was originally instituted by King Henry IV after he seized the throne from Richard II, and designed to cement the loyalty of the knights to his regime. Knights were created in the Tower of London on the eve of the Kingâs coronation, and spent a long night in a vigil of prayer after taking their baths of ritual purification before being dubbed by the king.
