Chroniques de J. Froissart, tome 05/13

The narrative is a detailed chronicle of mid-fourteenth-century military campaigns in France, recording raids, sieges, troop movements, dispositions, and a major pitched battle. It describes preparations, negotiations between opposing commanders, battlefield deployments and tactics—including archers, men-at-arms, earthworks, and terrain use—accounts of captures and surrenders, and the logistical strains on both armies. Alongside battle narrative, the work catalogs participating nobles and units, regional actions, and the aftermath of confrontations, presenting a granular, event-by-event account that blends strategic overview with eyewitness-style reportage.
