From a young age, Charles V showed tremendous potential and intelligence. As his father and grandfather before him continued to weaken France and ruin the prestige of their royal house, Charles’ arrival on the scene couldn’t have come at a better time.

King Charles worked tirelessly to regain France’s lost glory and played a pivotal role in one of Europe's most infamous wars: the Hundred Years’ War.

Born as the heir to the French Throne, Charles’ upbringing was full of instability, warfare, and scheming enemies. His love of politics, diplomacy, and strategy gave him the tools to bring France out of its decline, but he faced tremendous opponents along the way.

This historical biography explores his life story and is full of savvy diplomatic maneuvering, political intrigue, warfare, and close personal loss.

How did he bring the kingdom back from the edge of collapse? In King Charles The Wise: The King Who Saved France, we learn every detail of Charles’ entertaining life story.
