The Origins of the Hundred Years War Book Description
In this important study of Anglo-French relations in the century before the Hundred Years War, Malcolm Vale examines the legacy of continental rule bequeathed by the Angevin kings of England to their Plantagenet successors. He explores the sources of Anglo-French tension which ultimately led to the breakdown of feudal and diplomatic relations between the two greatest powers in western Europe.
