The Hundred Years War: The English in France 1337-1453 (ISBN=9780140283617) snb txt 网盘 pdf kindle 2025 lit 下载

　　A remarkable and engrossing account of medieval England's epic

conflict with France.

From 1337 to 1453 England repeatedly invaded France on the

pretext that her kings had a right to the French throne. Though it

was a small, poor country, England for most of those "hundred

years" won the battles, sacked the towns and castles, and dominated

the war. The protagonists of the Hundred Years War are among the

most colorful in European history: Edward III, the Black Prince;

Henry V, who was later immortalized by Shakespeare; the splendid

but inept John II, who died a prisoner in London; Charles V, who

very nearly overcame England; and the enigmatic Charles VII, who at

last drove the English out. Desmond Seward's critically-acclaimed

account of the Hundred Years War brings to life all of the

intrigue, beauty, and royal to-the-death-fighting of that legendary

century-long conflict.

"Mr. Seward shows us all the famous sights of those roaring times

. . . and illuminates them with an easy scholarship, a nice sense

of detail . . . and a most agreeable clarity of style." --The New

Yorker
