The History of England

104 Lancaster and the battle of Auberoche

Edward had little intention of keeping the truce for long. After a brief period of reconstruction, he repudiated the truce a year early.

His campaign in 1345 finally proves that the English can win.<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheHistoryOfEngland?a=AAoUw9lFoYI:ioVfq4mjXPE:yIl2AUoC8zA"></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheHistoryOfEngland?a=AAoUw9lFoYI:ioVfq4mjXPE:63t7Ie-LG7Y"></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheHistoryOfEngland?a=AAoUw9lFoYI:ioVfq4mjXPE:qj6IDK7rITs"> Hosted on Acast.

This my retelling of the story of England, which is a regular, chronological podcast, starting from the end of Roman Britain. There are as many of the great events I can squeeze in, of course, but I also try to keep an eye on how people lived, their language, what was important to them, the forces that shaped their lives and destinies, that sort of thing.
