Dan Jones, bestselling author, writer, broadcaster and journalist is back in this special pre-Festival event in which he talks about one of the most intriguing characters in medieval history, Henry V.
Henry V reigned over England for just nine years, and died at the age of 35, but he looms large over the landscape of the late Middle Ages and beyond.
The victor of Agincourt was remembered as a paragon of kingship, a model to be closely imitated by his successors. Churchill himself called Henry ‘a gleam of splendour in the dark, troubled story of medieval England’, while for one modern medievalist, Henry was, quite simply, ‘the greatest man who ever ruled England’.
Henry V is a thrilling and unmissable life of England’s greatest king, which Dan has been waiting many years to write.
