On October 25, 1415, the ill and exhausted English army (led by King
Henry V, who had inherited the throne just two years earlier) was badly
outnumbered by the French army, which was in much better condition.
Given these disparities, an English defeat may have seemed inevitable -
but in a remarkable turn of events, the English were victorious, and the
Battle of Agincourt turned Henry V into a hero of the Hundred Years'
War. Readers curious to learn more about this important battle may enjoy
The Road to Agincourt, created on Esri's story maps platform. After
setting the stage with background information about the events leading
up to the conflicts of 1415, the story map takes readers on a narrative
journey (illustrated by numerous maps, images, and graphics) that
follows Henry V's invasion of France as well as France's resistance in
the weeks preceding Agincourt before diving into the battle itself.
Along the way, readers are treated to informative commentary full of
details about the two armies' weaponry, strategies, and more. Published
in 2018, this richly visual story map was crafted by Ioannis-Rafail
Chatzis, a master's student at the University of Edinburgh. As of this
