Cry "God for Harry"

Against a background of England Wales and France in one of the most colourful periods of our history - the lusty and tumultuous fifteenth century - Martha Rofheart in a richly woven novel has freed Henry V from the confines of the history books. One of the most charismatic figures in English history the drinking wenching hunting fighting Henry is seen from several perspectives: his queen; his beautiful Welsh mistress Morgan; his court jester the fool; his comrade-in-arms Sir John Page; and his own point of view as both boy and man. As actors in this immense drama they illuminate the many sides of Henry V's personality: the devil-may-care prince portrayed by Shakespeare the bold hero of Agincourt and the loving husband of Katherine of Valois. In this long and compelling story bright with the colours of heraldry and filled with action and romance Henry comes magically to life.?
