Celebrated history author Rupert Matthews brings his own inimitable approach to one of the greatest battles in history to explain just what happened and why. Crecy changed everything. The French army, by far the most powerful in Christendom, was routed by men from an obscure northern island. The author has the ability, crucially, to get inside the opposing commanders' heads and explain their actions.
