The narrative focuses on the pivotal Battle of Poitiers in 1356, where Edward, the Black Prince led a small English army to a remarkable victory against French King Jean II. This battle, a key event in the Hundred Years' War, has often been overshadowed by other famous conflicts like Crécy and Agincourt. Christian Teutsch aims to reassess and highlight the significance of this legendary encounter, offering a fresh perspective on its impact and legacy in medieval warfare.
