Synopsis "Like Leaves Fall in Autumn: Hotspur, Henry IV and the Battle of Shrewsbury"
"There was a moment at the height of the Battle of Shrewsbury when it looked as though everyone, every knight and archer, every nobleman and peasant, would die there on that field of peas outside the city...." The battle that decided the fate of the Lancastrian regime in July 1403 is remembered by Battlefield Church, the medieval place of worship that was built on the site of the battle that killed Harry Hotspur and paved the way for his protege Henry V to become king. It is also remembered as the crisis in William Shakespeare's play Henry IV Part I. But so much else about this critical battle in English history has been forgotten - the fact that, for the first time, the longbowmen, which had made English armies so feared in other countries, were unleashed against each other. And the bitter rivalry between the two cities at the heart of the battle. This book is sold in aid of the church and tells the whole story of the Battle of Shrewsbury, and the life and death of the towering figures involved.
