Description

A new and startling look at Henry V, the heroic English warrior-king of Shakespeare's drama, argues that he was an intolerant bigot who avidly persecuted and burned Protestants, a Machiavellian politician, and a ruler bent on securing his questionable claim to the English throne at any cost. Reprint.
