All About History Books
The Deeds of King Henry V, or in Latin Henrici Quinti, Angliæ Regis, Gesta, is a first-hand account of the Agincourt Campaign, and subsequent events to his death in 1422. The author of the first part was a Chaplain in King Henry's retinue who was present from King Henry's departure at Southampton in 1415, at the siege of Harfleur, the battle of Agincourt, and the celebrations on King Henry's return to London. The second part, by another writer, relates the events that took place including the negotiations at Troye, Henry's marriage and his death in 1422.
Available at Amazon as eBook or Paperback.

The Golden Ratio, also known as the Golden Mean and Golden Section, is 1.618033... It is the solution to the equation x^2 - x - 1 = 0, or ( a + b ) / a = a / b.
The Golden Ratio is usually represented by the Greek Letter phi φ.
The Fibaonacci Series converges on the Golden Ratio.
The formula ( 1 + SQRT(5) ) / 2 is the Golden Ratio.
