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: \u003cb\u003eEdward III, the Black Prince\u003c\/b\u003e; \u003cb\u003eHenry V\u003c\/b\u003e, who was later immortalized by Shakespeare; the splendid but inept \u003cb\u003eJohn II\u003c\/b\u003e, who died a prisoner in London; \u003cb\u003eCharles V\u003c\/b\u003e, who very nearly overcame England; and the enigmatic \u003cb\u003eCharles VII\u003c\/b\u003e, who at last drove the English out. \u003cb\u003eDesmond Seward\u003c\/b\u003e'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.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380198408447,"sku":"9780140283617","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780140283617_s600x595.jpg?v=1777307683","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780140283617","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
