Christopher Allmand updates his earlier pamphlet on Henry V, taking into account research and ideas explored by historians over the last 50 years, to produce a much more rounded view of Henry V. The book is split into three parts - Henry V in history; Henry as he is viewed today; and Henry V the man rather than just a military leader. This is an accessible yet challenging interpretation of Henry V and his achievements, neatly summarising the twists and turns in the way historians have viewed the victor of Agincourt.
