Produktbeschreibung

On a rain-soaked field in 1415, a weary English army stood face-to-face with a vastly larger French force. What followed became one of the most stunning victories in medieval warfare. Steel in the Muddy Fields delivers a clear, informative, and engaging account of the Battle of Agincourt-an encounter that transformed the course of the Hundred Years' War and reshaped the mythology of kingship, courage, and tactical innovation. Aimed at general readers, this narrative breaks down the essential elements that defined the battle: the crippling impact of mud and terrain, the disciplined use of English longbowmen, the tactical missteps of French commanders, and the iron will of Henry V. Readers will discover how weather, logistics, morale, and battlefield positioning proved as decisive as weapons and armor. Going beyond dramatic storytelling, the book provides accessible insight into medieval military structure, combat conditions, cultural context, and the long-term legacy of a single day's fighting. Step into the clash where discipline defeated might, where strategy overcame numbers, and where an outmatched army secured one of history's most iconic battlefield triumphs.
