Drawing from more than fifty archives across western Europe, the compilation spans 1357-1380 and offers factual documentation of du Guesclin's extraordinary career as a guerrilla leader during the Breton War of Succession and his influential tenure as Constable from 1370-80. The letters, orders and musters reveal his crucial role in France's recovery under Charles V, his multiple captures and victories in pivotal battles, and the personality that made him the most celebrated soldier of his generation. Essential reading for historians, military scholars and anyone studying medieval French history, this Boydell Press edition provides primary evidence that complements the contemporary chivalric verse accounts of du Guesclin's legendary exploits.
