Crécy: The Age of the Archer

The battle scenes felt so vivid and real, but I wonder if creative liberties were taken to heighten the drama or stick to the facts.

Their bravery and struggles made me root for them, but I’m curious how much of their experience was inspired by real accounts versus fictional embellishment.

This perspective isn’t often highlighted in medieval fiction, so I wonder if there was a specific reason behind choosing this focus.
