VALIANT SON lays bare the man known in history as England’s Black Prince, revealing the heart and soul of the boy who became the greatest warrior prince of the Middle Ages.
Edward grew up in a world dominated by his father’s political ambitions during the early stages of the 100 Years War. As heir to King Edward III, duty and loyalty were drilled into Edward from boyhood. Overshadowed by his heroic father, Edward drove himself to prove —to the king and the world—he was worthy to wear England’s crown. Yet, to those who knew him best, his cousin, Joan of Kent, and lifelong friend, John Chandos, understood Edward allowed people to see only what he wanted them to see.
The prince embraced the ideals of knighthood, loyalty his guiding light. When King Edward invaded Normandy, the sixteen-year-old prince went with him. For six grueling weeks, the army marched, torching everything in its path until cornered by the French.
Though outnumbered four-to-one, duty and honor demanded Prince Edward command the vanguard. He stepped onto the battlefield knowing every glory-seeking French chevalier’s sights were set on taking down the heir to England’s throne. Edward’s blind faith led to a battlefield betrayal he never saw coming.
