A young dynamic medieval warrior king. A glorious English victory at Agincourt. A reign cut short by a premature early death.
In this highly readable account written in the present tense, TV historian Dan Jones gets behind the truth of a 15th century ruler made famous by Shakespeare, Laurence Olivier and Kenneth Branagh. Jones doesn't gloss over his brutal treatment of French prisoners and Lollards.

Henry V by Dan Jones

I love history and really enjoy reading about it . For some reason I have never read beyond Henry V111 (other than ancient history vikings , ancient Britain etc , so reading this was a joy.
Dan has a great way of making it all very interesting .
