About this product
Product Information
For all the talk of chivalry, medieval warfare routinely involved acts that we would consider war crimes. Lands laid waste, civilians slaughtered, prisoners massacred: this was standard fare justified by tradition and practical military necessity. This popular treatment of a grisly subject examines the battles of Acre and Agincourt, sieges like Beziers, Lincoln, Jerusalem, and Limoges, as well as the infamous chevauchees of the Hundred Years War that devastated great swathes of France. Learn how these events formed the origin of accepted "rules of war"; codes of conduct that are today being enforced in the International Court of Justice in The Hague. This is an all-encompassing portrait of war in the Middle Ages that combines vivid narrative with explanation and analysis.

Reviews
Sean McGlynn¿s excellent book examines the reason for [the] barbarity and reaches the same conclusion as [McNab] did during [his] time as a PoW in the first Iraq war¿Unlike many books on warfare, this book dares to say what others won¿t.
