Anne Curry's Hundred Years War as a teaching text

A concise account with accessible prose and dynastic information is recommended as a core introduction to the Hundred Years War.

Notes

Anne Curry's The Hundred Years War is a core text Clarke uses when teaching this period. Its appeal is a combination of factual content, readable prose, and manageable length. A short assigned book gives less enthusiastic readers a better chance of finishing it, while keen students can pursue further reading independently. Its dynastic material also helps introduce the families involved in the conflict.
