Summary: Good Popular History
Comment: I've recently bought all the Pen & Sword Military Classics thus far released and have started reading them in order. This title is #1 in the series. I found it an enjoyable read on a period of history with which I was not very familiar. Featherstone does an admirable job of describing the tactics employed by English archers in the period of their ascendance in European warfare. He also provides some details on who became archers and their place in English society. Short but clear descriptions of battles like Crecy, Poitiers, and Agincourt round out the picture. Featherstone has a pleasant writing style, although he uses a lot of technical terms regarding bows and armor that I think most people will need to look up in an unabridged dictionary.
