Poitiers 1356: The capture of a king: Campaign, cartea 138

Autor Dr David Nicolle Ilustrat de Graham Turner
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iun 2004
When Edward the Black Prince marched out of Gascony in August 1356, his plan was to carry out a large-scale destructive raid into the territory of the French King, John II. On 18 September, however, he was cornered south of Poitiers by a larger French army, and was left with little option but to fight. The ensuing battle proved an unmitigated disaster for the French. Their army was butchered and the King himself captured. In this volume, Dr David Nicolle details a campaign that enhanced the reputation of the Black Prince and led King John to catastrophe.
