百年战争（第2卷）：烈火的审判（全2册）
(uk)jonathan Samshin
The English's long and violent attempt to dismember the continent's most powerful nation created one of the most far-reaching chapters in European history. The Hundred Years' War series by Jonathan Samshin, winner of the Wolfson History Prize, explains in detail this period of history related to the national destiny of Britain and France. "Trial of Fire" takes survival as its theme and spans from 1347 to 1369. It includes magnificent war scenes such as the Battle of Poitiers and the Battle of Nachla, and also focuses on the political, economic and diplomatic affairs of Britain and France. It shows the severe test of the protracted war and political and economic crisis on the state machinery and urban and rural society. This test permanently changed the relationship between the central and local governments under the monarchy system and the operation of government power, and also promoted a new round of political integration between Britain and France.
