Book Review By Megan E. Davis
Henry V by William Shakespeare

Young King Henry V of England decides to go to war with France after being assured that he has a right to the throne by blood. The French Prince sends insults to Henry via the harold, Mountjoy, who sympathizes with Henry, though is loyal to the French. Henry takes his "happy few" to war, and after a tremendous battle at Agincourt, he triumphs and takes the French throne. Then he woos the French Princess Katherine who is somewhat reluctant to love "the enemy of France." Henry assures her he is the "friend of France," and of course wins her in the end.
