Question

This battle is the first described in John Keegan’s The Face of Battle, which attempts to visualize wedges of soldiers in mixed-rank “hedgehog” formation. Ruth Bader Ginsburg judged a mock trial that condemned the (15[1])victor of this battle for issuing an order to execute all prisoners when local peasants raided his unguarded baggage (15[1])train. “Double subsidies” raised a fleet of up to 1,500 cogs for the winners of this battle, who attempted to retreat to (*) Calais after (10[1])taking heavy losses while besieging (10[2])Harfleur. This battle, the (-5[1])climax of an invasion allegedly launched as a reaction to a gift of tennis (-5[1])balls, ended when (10[1])mounted men-at-arms under Charles D’Albret charged through mud on Saint Crispin’s Day, only to be massacred by longbows. For 10 (10[1])points, name this 1415 battle, a (10[1])victory for Henry V. (0[1])■END■
