In this episode, Dan explains the dramatic story of the Battle of Agincourt when, against overwhelming odds, Henry V’s underdog English army emerged victorious over their mighty French opponents. We explore why the battle happened in the first place, as well as the key characters, weaponry, and tactics that turned the tide.
Join Dan to discover how Agincourt became a legendary military triumph in English history.
Written by Dan Snow, and edited by Dougal Patmore and Matthew Wilson.
