Trial by Battle: The Hundred Years War, Vol. 1: Trial by Battle v. 1Trial by Battle: The Hundred Years War, Vol. 1: Trial by Battle v. 1

This text is the first volume in a series that details the long and violent endeavour of the English to dismember Europe's strongest state, a succession of wars that is one of the seminal chapters in European history. Beginning with the funeral of Charles IV of France in 1328, it follows the Hundred Years War up to the surrender of Calais in 1347. It traces the early humiliations and triumphs of Edward III: the campaigns of Sluys, Crecy and Calais, which first made his name as a war leader and the reputation of his subjects as the most brutally effective warriors of their time.

And those outstanding qualities, says New York literary agent Noah Lukeman, have to be apparent from the first five pages.

Balkan Battles: A History of the Balkan Fronts of the First World WarBalkan Battles: A History of the Balkan Fronts of the First World War

The Great War had begun in the Balkans, the almost inevitable result of decades of intrigue, assassination and fratricidal conflict among a host of relatively minor nationalistic groups.
