This remarkable work tells the story of a man who rose from humble Breton nobility to become Constable of France during the Hundred Years War, a position that outranked even the princes of the blood royal. Bertrand du Guesclin's military campaigns and heroic deeds rival those of Joan of Arc herself, making him a central figure in France's recovery and one of the most compelling historical figures of 14th-century European warfare. Published by Boydell Press, this translation brings Cuvelier's classical war poetry to English readers, offering insight into medieval military strategy, chivalry, and the legendary exploits that shaped French history. Perfect for readers interested in medieval history, war poetry, and the Hundred Years War.
