The Hundred Years War Revisited

From the introduction, which contains a succinct summary of the main events and historiographical issues of the Hundred Years War, and through each successive chapter, this thematically arranged volume is an indispensable resource for scholars and students seeking an accessible guide to one of medieval history’s most memorable military conflicts. * Maya Soifer Irish, Rice University, USA *
This impressive collection brings together recent scholarship on the Hundred Year War in a form which is accessible to both students and teachers. It balances French and English perspectives, and complements the focus on traditional themes such as politics and chivalry with innovative work on topics such as the war ‘at home’ and first-hand experience of the war. * Richard Cust, University of Birmingham, UK *
This new volume is a worthy companion to Kenneth Fowler's outstanding collection of 1971, which introduced two generations of scholars to key themes in the history of the Hundred Years War. It will be required reading in my seminar on the subject. * Clifford J. Rogers, United States Military Academy, West Point, USA *
This volume will be immensely useful to introduce students to the work of previous generations of historians, expertly sketching out and contextualising commonly agreed insights but also throwing light on scholarly disagreements and newly emerging areas of research. – Godfried Croenen, University of Liverpool, UK * Godfried Croenen, University of Liverpool, UK *
