Hundred Years War - 1337 to 1453 The Hundred Years' War began in 1337, when Edward III claimed the French throne through his mother Isabella, a daughter of the King of France. The fighting continued until 1453 when the English finally gave up their claim to the French throne, although the 'fleur de lys', the emblem of the French kings, still appears upon the English Royal Standard. Edward III The first major battle in the Hundred Years' War was in 1340, when the English navy defeated the French navy at the Battle of Sluys. This was the first real victory by the English navy. The fighting was more like a land battle, with the ships locked together and a great deal of hand to hand fighting. Much more important was the Battle of Crecy in 1346, which was won by Edward III. The English longbowmen were able to defeat the French knights with their accurate long-range fire. In 1347 Edward took Calais, which was held by the English until 1557. In 1356 he repeated his earlier success at the Battle of Poitiers. Edward's son, Edward the Black Prince , used the same tactics as at Crecy and captured the King of France, his son and many of the French knights. It now seemed that the English would be victorious, but events soon took a turn for the worse.
