'...The remarkable volume ... is unlike any previous study of the battle of Crécy. ...The gathering together of this vast range of source materials into a single volume and offering new translations would, in itself, present a remarkable achievement. ...offers striking new insights about the
campaign of 1346 and the battle itself. ...offers unprecedented access to the sources for the campaign of 1346 and the battle of Crécy both to scholars and to students.' - David Bachrach, The Medieval Review
'An immense collection, followed by a thorough and renewed reflection on a battle as essential to the history of France.' - Sehepunkte
[Livingston and DeVries] provide another essential book on the Battle of Crécy, enriching the debate around some of its military aspects. More fundamental for any scholar of the Hundred Years War is the useful edition of collected primary sources. It will greatly facilitate access to this material
and hopefully give rise to further, diverse studies.
