The work focuses on the life and character of Henry V, tracing his early years from his birth through his upbringing to his noble achievements, as both Prince of Wales and King of England. The author aims to present a biography based on factual records and historical authenticity, contrasting this with the dramatizations found in Shakespeare's works."
