The conflict between England and France in the 14th and 15th centuries never ceases to fascinate. This stimulating edited collection, inspired by the Problems in Focus volume originally published in 1971, provides a fresh and accessible insight into the key aspects of The Hundred Years War. With chapters written by leading experts in the field, based on new methodologies and recent advances in scholarship, this book places the Anglo-French wars into a range of wider contexts, such as politics, the home front, the church, and chivalry. Adopting a sustained comparative approach, with attention paid to both England and France, The Hundred Years War Revisited provides a clear and comprehensive synthesis of the major trends in research on the Hundred Years War.

Concise and thought-provoking, this is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of medieval history.

Anne Curry is Professor of Medieval History at the University of Southampton, UK, a past president of The Historical Association, and author of many books on the Anglo-French wars of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. She is particularly well known for her researches on Agincourt and on the armies of the period. Her publications include The Battle of Agincourt. Sources and Interpretations (Boydell), Agincourt. A New History (History Press), Bosworth 1485. A Battlefield Rediscovered (with Glenn Foard, Oxbow), and The Soldier in Later Medieval England (with Adrian Bell, Andy King and David Simpkin, OUP).
