Exploring the life and reign of Henry V, this biography offers a nuanced portrayal of the iconic monarch, traditionally viewed as a hero but also critiqued as an egotist or ruthless leader. It situates his kingship within the historical context and highlights the influence of key figures like his father and uncles. The author, John Matusiak, argues that while Henry faced a favorable situation at the beginning of his reign, his remarkable talents and military successes profoundly impacted his contemporaries.
