It’s Saint Crispin’s Day

It’s Saint Crispin’s Day

Which means most are remembering that famous moment at the equally famous battle of Agincourt, when Shakespeare tells us what King Henry V really said to his troops before battle.  Donald McClarey, as usual, is on the ball with this day in history.  Read and listen to the accounts here.   Also, for a bonus, he has a piece about that young lady who has confounded historians for generations by helping undo the mess that Agincourt made for France.   A big day for history and for Shakespeare buffs.
