Summary
The Hundred Years War has begun, and although King Edward and his lords are on the march through France, the war really belongs to the men on the ground. One of the tight knit companies making their way through the chaos are the Essex Dogs, who are trying to stay alive long enough to see their home again. Author of Essex Dogs, Dan Jones, is a historian, broadcaster, and best-selling author of ten non-fiction books. He joins Richard and Judy to explain why a milestone birthday prompted him to move into fiction writing for the first time. He also talks about the parallels he’s observed between medieval armies and football hooligans, what Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin told him about how to combine fact with fiction, and how the title was inspired by a Blur song.
