AGINCOURT was an acclaimed bestseller. Now Juliet Barker recounts the epic events that followed Henry V's return to conquer France and acquire the crown. This is the forgotten story of the thirty years when England ruled France at the point of a sword. The dramatic events of that time ? sieges and battles, plots and betrayals ? are given new life through a kaleidoscope of characters from the inspirational Joan of Arc and John Talbot, 'the English Achilles', to brutal mercenaries, resourceful spies and tragic lovers torn apart by the conflict. This is narrative history at its most colourful and compelling.

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
