Despite the great English victories at Crecy, Poitiers and
Agincourt, the French eventually triumphed in the Hundred Years
War. This book examines the last campaign of the war, covering the
great battles at Formigny in 1450 and Castillon in 1453, both of
which hold an interesting place in military history. The battle of
Fornigny saw French cavalry defeat English archers in a reverse of
those earlier English victories, while Castillon became the first
great success for gunpowder artillery in fixed positions. Finally,
the book explains how the seemingly unmartial King Charles VII of
France all but drove the English into the sea, succeeding where so
many of his predecessors had failed.
