Publisher's Summary

In this landmark study of Agincourt, prize-winning author Juliet Barker draws upon a huge range of sources, published and unpublished, English and French, to give a compelling account of a battle upon which so many legends have been built. But she also looks behind the action on the field to paint a portrait of the age. A mad king, murderous dukes, scheming bishops, knightly heroes, surgeons, heralds, spies, and pirates: the story of Agincourt has them all.

What the critics say

"[A] wonderfully vivid, clear and involving book that is destined to become a classic account." ( The Economist)
"A lively, stimulating account of this bloody day of battle. It is full of both serious research and entertaining gems. Barker makes the politics of the Hundred Years' War lucidly comprehensible." ( The Times)

This is NOT THE FULL BOOK

This is not the full book. It’s maybe half of the book, skipping easily the first 8 chapters.
I was seriously disappointed by this.
It’s one thing if it says it’s an abridged edition. Quite another to parade this around as the audiobook. Definitely returning this.
