This ambitious account of Hawkwood is both a biography and a study of warfare and statecraft. William Caferro has mined more than twenty archives in England and Italy, creating an authoritative portrait of Hawkwood as an extraordinary military leader, if not always an admirable human being. In addition to a thorough account of Hawkwood's life and career, Caferro's study offers a fundamental reassessment of the Italian military situation and of the mercenary system.

reviewed John Hawkwood: An English Mercenary in Fourteenth-Century Italy on November 27, 2017 John Hawkwood: An English Mercenary in Fourteenth-Century Italy
A quite brilliant and exhaustively researched work on a man I had heard of but knew very little about. It's not easy going because of the detail required to tell it properly, but it's a fascinating and far-from-sugar-coated portrait of a man who was a bastard even by the standards of his time, but not just a bastard (as well as not the worst of his kind), instead there was a lot to him and this reads as a fair and unbiased portrait.
