Barbara Tuckman's "A Distant Mirror" deals with the 14th century and thus part of the war, but its really a survey of the times rather than an in-depth focus on any one thing.

Seconding this. It's a great read.

That's the one about the knight, right?

Can you read French?

Is it worth learning?

Not for this one book, but it's a decent language to know if you're into history, particularly European history.

The book is really good though. Minois is unbiased, has a subtle sense of humor that is apparent to my mediocre French, and very detailed regarding the interpersonal politics of the day. He also tends not to take everything written before as holy gospel while yet not being a revisionist. The introduction for example is all about where the term "Hundred Years War" even comes from in a historiographical sense.
The book is 730 pages long, has maps, genealogies (really necessary for things like the War of Two Jeans, a feudal dispute where fucking everyone involved was named Jean), timelines, and of course a THICC bibliography.

Looks like French might be a new hobby for me. Have there been any attempts at translation?

I've never heard of the War of Two Jeans by the way. I can't find it on google either.

When reading this, keep in mind John and Joan are just Jean and Jeanne in French.
Found it when searching the french term, La guerre des deux Jeanne
