excellent work

The war marked both the height of chivalry and its subsequent decline, as well as the development of strong national identities in both countries.

solid guide

I highly recommend this book to all who want to know about how the rivalry between England and France developed and how the rivalry led to war that made it not just a hundred year war, but a war that lasted well over 400 years.

Death, courage and leadership failures

I recommend this book for anyone who has any interest in this important part of European history and its implications up to modern times. Understanding wars of the past should help us avoid wars of the future

you won't be disappointed!

It was riveting, horrifying, humorous, unsettling and hopeful all rolled up into one well written book. It's one of those books that will stay with me for a long time. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in the Armenian Genocide or if you're looking for a fascinating story of hope, determination and courage in the face of oppression.

Great history book

I've read multiple books about the 100 years war. Some are more detailed, most are much longer,Most history books are by their nature, rather dry. A Captivating Guide history and story telling into one riveting book.
