Men of Iron Historical Fiction Paperback Book by Howard Pyle from TAB Club 1954

Men of Iron is an 1891 novel by the American author Howard Pyle, who also illustrated it. 

Set in the 15th century, it is a juvenile "coming of age" work in which a young squire, Myles Falworth, seeks not only to become a knight but to eventually redeem his father's honor. 

In Chapter 24 the knighthood ceremony is presented and described as it would be in a non-fiction work concerning knighthood and chivalry. 

Descriptions of training equipment are also given throughout.
