About This Item

London England: Book Club Associates, 1972. Introduction by Antonia Fraser. On 25 Ocotber 1415, the flower of French chivalry fell, slaughtered in a muddy field near the village of Agincourt. From that day onwards, when his outnumbered English army fought desperately and successfully for survival, the name of Henry V has rung through history as one of the great warrior heroes of the Middle Ages. His father had won the throne in a successful revolt against an unpopular tyrant, and Henry was to spend his boyhood in the field defending his inheritance. From this harsh upbringing he derived a devotion to military ideals which inspired his people to follow him gladly to war and which gave him the reputation of the most formidable warrior of his age. Yet as the author shows in this study, Henry was also a courteous and cultured man who encouraged the arts in his kingdom and whose wooing of a French princess fulfilled all the highest expectations of courtly love. 16 pages of colour plates. 100 illustrations in black and white. Small waterstain mark to corner vover of D/J. Very slight foxing to end pages. Some wear to D/J. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.). 1st Book Club Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Hardback.
