Azincourt, fought on October 25th 1415, on St Crispin's Day, is one of the best known battles partly because it was a brilliant and unexpected English victory and partly because it was the first battle won by the use of the longbow. This was a weapon developed in this form only by the English - parishes were forced to train boys from as young as eight daily - and enabled them to dominate the European battlefields for the rest of the century. Nicholas Hook is a man frequently in trouble at home but finds his true path in the company of Henry V's archers. The book relates the events leading to the Battle of Agincourt, the historical personages and the fictional characters as seen by Nicholas Hook. N.B. This book was released as Agincourt in the United States.
