Description

Fought nearly six generations before, the Battle of Agincourt however captivates. It's the classic underdog tale, and decades have questioned the way the Language--outmanned from the six to 1--might have prevailed thus brilliantly and bravely. Drawing on a broad selection of resources, Juliet Barker offers a gripping story of the March 1415 conflict between your outnumbered English archers and the heavily-armored French knights. Filled with chivalrous heroes, dastardly agents, and a daring and ferocious master, AGINCOURT is really as earth-shaking as its topic--and confirms Juliet Barker's standing as both a historian and a storyteller of the very first position.
