The fourteenth and fifteenth centuries were a time of great upheaval for medieval France. In 1328 the Capetian line came to an end. This was the trigger for the Hundred Years War (1337-1453) as successive English kings attempted to uphold their claim to the French throne. Catastrophic defeats at Cr???cy and Poitiers shook the French kingdom to its core.

This book details how the French began a recovery, partly triggered by the young visionary Joan of Arc, that would end with them as the major European military power.
