| Summary | "Agincourt: A Romance" by G. P. R. James is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story unfolds during a tumultuous time, focusing on characters entwined in themes of chivalry, love, and conflict, set against the dramatic backdrop of England's past. The narrative introduces Richard of Woodville, a young squire, and Hal of Hadnock, a mysterious traveler, as they embark on a journey filled with intrigue and adventure. At the start of the book, the reader is introduced to a dark and mysterious night ride, where Richard of Woodville encounters a stranger, Hal of Hadnock, while traveling through a remote area. Their conversation reveals a light-hearted camaraderie, punctuated by deeper musings on love and life's challenges. As they ride together, they explore themes of friendship, personal aspirations, and the burdens of unrequited love. However, the tone shifts dramatically with the shocking discovery that Catherine Beauchamp—a member of Richard's family—has met a tragic fate, underscoring the darker undercurrents of the narrative and setting the stage for further developments in the plot.
