Abstract

This is the story of young Henry VIII's first major venture into international diplomacy on the battlefield in 1513. In 1511 Henry joined the Holy League to force the French out of Italy. The next year Henry sent a useless expedition of 18,000 troops into Navarre. And the next, armed with the Pope's blessing as the legitimate king of France and 2000 Imperial soldiers from Maximilian I, he led 25,000 Englishmen across the Channel to seize some French territory and win royal honor.
