The relationship between these two monarchs has long fascinated historians and serious work has been done in the last generation, especially on the earlier period. Rather less has been done on the end of their reigns. The perspective is a dual one, from both that of England and France, with equal weight given to the reasons for conflict and the effects of war on both (on land and sea, in France and Scotland). For England, the military effort of the period proved to be extremely damaging and long-lasting, while France found itself at war on two fronts for the first time since the early 1520's. The book therefore asks why Henry VIII opted for the imperial alliance in 1542, thus committing himself to war in the long term, and why Francis I and his advisers did not do more to win over the English alliance. The Anglo-French war needs to be placed firmly in the context of the great Habsburg-Valois dual. The Anglo-French wars of this period have not received any serious modern analysis and the study of diplomacy in the period needs to be updated. Maps and plans are included and some illustrations. 410 0$aHistory of warfare ;$vv. 66. 607 $aFrance$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory, Military$y1485-1603 607 $aFrance$xHistory, Military$y1328-1589 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign relations$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xForeign relations$zGreat Britain 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yHenry VIII, 1509-1547 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yFrancis I, 1515-1547 676 $a942.05/2 700 $aPotter$b David$f1948-$01642131 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808868803321 996 $aHenry VIII and Francis I$93986668 997 $aUNINA
