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 theatres in which it was fought. In this book, Hundred
Years' War expert Dr Anne Curry reveals how the war can reveal much
about the changing nature of warfare: the rise of infantry and the
demise of the knight; the impact of increased use of gunpowder and the
effect of the wars on generations of people around it.
