Henry V is a history play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written near 1599. It tells the story of King Henry V of England, focusing on events immediately before and after the Battle of Agincourt (1415) during the Hundred Years' War. The scenes are well-drawn and intriguing, but in general, this just didn't hold my attention as well as some of Shakespeare's other masterpieces.
