Henry V is one of England's best known kings. He was a scholar, skilled at sports, and an accomplished musician. But above all he was a soldier, and he decided to restart the war with France after the uneasy truce that had held since 1396. The battle of Agincourt was a major victory, won by the accuracy of the English long bowmen against superior odds.
