Contemporaries considered Edward III of England 'the wisest and shrewdest warrior in the world': by 1360 the English, at the beginning of his reign considered 'inferior to the wretched Scots', had become the foremost martial nation of Europe, winning famous victories against the odds at Dupplin Moor, Halidon Hill, Crécy and Poitiers. Cilfford Rogers offers a thoroughly reassessment of the military and political strategies which Edward III and the Black Prince employed to achieve this astounding result.

  • War Cruel and Sharp
    Clifford J. Rogers
    Contemporaries considered Edward III of England `the wisest and shrewdest warrior in the world’, but he has not fared so well in the estimation of modern historians, many of whom have argued that he was a fine tactician but a poor strategist. This is despite the fact that by 1360 the English had become the foremost martial nation of Europe; that famous victories had been won at...
