England and The Hundred Years' War (1327 - 1485)
Charles William Chadwick Oman
As far as history books go this one lands firmly in the middle. It's a little dry and covers a lot of ground in a short space. It's a good introduction to the Hundred Years War as told through the English perspective. I think that the French perspective might be a bit more interesting to read as that seems to be where the action was at. Also, because it covered so much ground so quickly it glosses over some of the important things a bit too quickly. That being said, it's probably a good introduction piece for anyone looking to learn a bit more about this war.
