Very Very Informational

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The author writes with a strong voice, rarely flagging presumptions or results as such. Care must be taken to cross-reference his discussion where it differs from the narration of a set of factual events.

Lovely

Overall, a good telling of the battle that led the way to modern England and France, including their unending hatred that only subsided at the end of the 19th century. There is also a very good compilation to further study the 100 Years War in more detail.

Excellent Overview

This book is unquestionably one of those short and sweet examples when it comes to non-fiction. It provides you just enough knowledge for you to get a grip on the whole condition but not too much to make you feel smothered.

I Recommend It

Well-written and based on what appears to be careful research. One hopes that this author will continue this look at history. I have traveled a little in France and seen some of the towns named in the series as well as Paris.

Great Research

The book is everything it promises, with one exception. This author is an extraordinary advocate, historian, and writer, but he wrote volume one before this one.
