Overview
There can be no doubt that military conflict between France and England dominated European history in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. This war is of considerable interest both because of its duration and the number of theaters in which it was fought. In this book, Anne Curry demonstrates how this conflict reveals much about the changing nature of warfare: the rise of infantry and the demise of the knight; the impact of increased gunpowder use; and the effect of the wars the on generations of people who lived through it.Synopsis
