Military art prints of the Battle of Agincourt by leading military artists, published by Cranston Fine Arts, the military print company.

Battle of Agincourt October 25th 1415. Fought during the Hundred years war. at the end of the English Invasion of 1415. King Henry the V of England  after his conquest of Harfleur marched his army of 1,000 Knights and 5,000 Archers towards Calais. He marched to Amiens as flooding had caused the river at the Somme which was the direct route. This delay gave the French army of 20,000 strong under the command of the Constable Charles d'Albret and Marshal Jean Bouciquaut II. The French army blocked Henry V route to Calais. Giving the English no choice but to fight. Henry V positioned his army at Agincourt, between to wooded areas giving a frontage of 1100 metres. Henry deployed his force into three Divisions each group had archers at each flank.  He had chosen his position well, in front of his army was ploughed fields and due to the heavy raid was very muddy.  Due to the narrow battlefield area the French army lost there advantage of superior numbers.   At 11 o'clock the English started to advance their archers within 2509 years of the French, getting them into range of the French lines.  The French line of Cavalry advanced at a slow pass due to the heavy mud, They took heavy losses from the arrows from the English Long Bowman.  They were eventually repulsed by the Archers who as the French cavalry approached changed from using longbows for Axes and and swords.  The French second Cavalry line advanced only to be finally repulsed after hand to hand fighting. The commander Duc d'AAlencon was killed in the attack.   The second charge had failed and many of the French knights were taken prisoner.  Believing he had been attacked in the rear Henry V ordered that the prisoners were to be put to death. In fact There was no real rear attack it was French Camp Followers plundering the English Camp.  The French camp Followers were quickly dealt with and the english again prepared itself for the next attack. The third attack never materialized as the sight of so much blood shed and piles of  corpes  turned the charge  into a retreat.   The English had won the Day  with losses less than 1600. compared to the French losses of over 7,000  including the capture of Bouciquaut (D'Albret had been killed earlier in the charge).  Henry V,  his way now cleared reached Calais on the 16th November 1415.   Agincourt  is one of the great Battles of Military History, and this victory enabled Henry V to return to France in 1417 and conquer all of Normandy.

Agincourt 1415

Immortalized by Shakespeare, Agincourt is an epic of courage and hard fighting. Brought to bay after the long siege of Harfleur, Henry V's army was soaked, starving and riddled with disease, and facing a French army at odds of more than 3 to 1. How the English beat off their attackers and slaughtered the flower of French nobility is vividly described in this volume. Matthew Bennett is a lecturer at the RMA Sandhurst and a specialist in medieval military history.

The Agincourt War by Lt-Col Alfred H. Burne

This companion volume to the Crecy War (also published by Wordsworth Editions) is a military history of the latter part of the Hundred Years' War form 1369 to 1453. It opens, following the death of the Black Prince, with a series of reverses which contrast starkly with the earlier victorious campaigns. The English cause languished until the spectacular rise of Henry V and his crushing defeat of the French and victory at Agincourt. Names familiar from Shakespeare's histories resound through these pages - Chandos, Bedford, Salisbury, Talbot, du Guesclin and Joan of Arc.

While the highlight of the book is the Battle of Agincourt, there are a number of battles of almost equal military interest; indeed the Battle of Verneuil has been described by a French writer as 'un seconde Azincourt'.

Post UK- £3.00 (max post for multiple books £6.00).

The Last Stage Of Lieutenant Smyths Heroic Journey.

The Last Stage Of Lieutenant Smyths Heroic Journey.   When only Lieutenant Smyth and Sepoy Lal Singh were left of the original eleven they reached a small stream.  They were subjected to a heavy fire, and it was some time before they discovered a fordable spot.  There they crossed, carrying a box of bombs between them and escaping disaster by some miracle.  They reached he firing trench at last, but unfortunately Lal Singh was almost immediately killed.  Lieutenant Smyth received the Victoria Cross for this heroic exploit and the ten brave Indians were rewarded with the Indian Distinguished Service Medal.

Battle of Hastings Chess Pieces. (B)

Battle of Hastings Chess Pieces. (B)   These chess pieces represent the two opposing armies in the most famous battle fought on English soil. Harold, the English King leads his Saxon forces against the invading William, Duke of Normandy. The ensuing battle near Hastings on the south coast of England in 1066 altered the course of English history. The amazing detail created by our sculptors is richly displayed in this historic chess set.  This superb set has been a favourite since its introduction in regular brown and ivory finish. After many requests our artists have demonstrated their skills by hand decorating this set so that it now seems to reveal more of the authentic detail in each piece.  The set is based on the famous Battle of Hastings in which King Harold II of England opposed the invading Norman army led by William Duke of Normandy on October 14th 1066.  After the hard fought battle of Stamford Bridge in which he defeated and killed Harold Hardrada King of Norway who had invaded Northumbria, Harold and his Saxon Army marched from York to the south coast of England. At the small village of Battle, just inland from Hastings, Harolds tired army met the invading forces of William Duke of Normandy.  These chess pieces are authentic reproductions of the characters, clothing and equipment of the era.
