Books…

Hundred Years War: Volume IV – Cursed Kings
The Hundred Years War: Volume IV – Cursed Kings
Tells the story of the destruction of France by the madness of its king and the greed and violence of his family. In the early 15th century, Europe's strongest and most populous state, France, suffered a complete internal collapse. As the warring parties within fought for the spoils of the kingdom under the vacant gaze of the mad King Charles VI, the country was left at the mercy of one of the most remarkable rulers of the European Middle Ages: Henry V of England, who had destroyed the French army on the field of Agincourt in October 1415 and left most of France's leadership dead. Recounts in extraordinary detail the relentless campaign of conquest that brought Henry to the streets and palaces of Paris within just a few years. He died at the age of 36 in a French royal castle in 1422, just two months before he would have become King of France. $60.00 USD
