Great video. Didn’t know much of this campaign before Crecy.
Wished you didn’t use that old Edward III image. Makes you think he was so much older than Philip VI
Sacrifice for… Chapeau!
Great video, how about battle of Nisibis 217 AD? 🙂 Thanks! 🙂
The ironic thing is that the failed campaign and siege of Tournai would mark the nadir of Edward’s fortunes and with the developing Breton civil war and other successful campaigns fought in Gascony in 1345-46 and Crecy of campaign of 1346. Would set Edward abd England in a road to victory that would culminate in 1361 treaty of Bretigny.
Hope that as well as a video on the Crecy campaign, that you will also do one for the generally overlooked Gascony campaign of 1345-46 and how Lancaster’s success there proved very useful in giving Edward free reign in Normandy on his match to Crecy.
