Like Henry, who had won the decisive battle of Agincourt the year before, Bedford was not a man to shy away from the thick of the fighting. His flagship, the mighty Holy Ghost, would be at the heart of the battle.Ship was a floating symbol of power and prestige - the pride of the fleetWarship was 120ft long, weighed 700 tons and was built from 3,700 treesShe helped save hundreds of men and dozens of battles against French
