The first book on the important but overlooked French invasion of England in 1216, which was almost a second Norman Conquest History came within a hair's breadth of repeating itself, 150 years after the Norman Conquest. In 1216, taking advantage of the turmoil created in England by King John's inept rule and the war over Magna Carta, Prince Louis of France and his army of mercenaries and French soldiers invaded England and allied with English rebels. The prize was the crown of England. Within months Louis had seized control of one-third of the country, including London. This is the first book to cover the bloody events of the invasion, one of the most dramatic but most overlooked episodes of British history. The text vividly describes the campaigns, sieges, battles, and atrocities of the invasion and its colorful leadersâLouis the Lion, King John, William Marshal, and the mercenaries Fawkes de Béauté and Eustace the Monkâto offer the first detailed military analysis of this epic struggle for England.

Lands laid waste, civilians slaughtered, prisoners massacred: this is the grisly truth about warfare in the Middle Ages, now captured in all its horror. This original, authoritative account, perfect for the general reader, examines the celebrated battles of Acre and Agincourt; the sieges on Béziers, Lincoln, Jerusalem, and Limoges; the devastating Hundred Years' War; and the destruction wrought by "chivalric" kings such as Henry V and Richard the Lionheart. From this brutality, there finally emerged more humane "rules of war."
