Chandler, David, ed. A Guide to the Battlefields of Europe, vol. 1; Chilton Books, 1965. A tourist's guide to the battlefields of Europe, with brief comments on the battles by major military experts. If I were going to crib a description of the battle from only one place, this would be it.
Hibbert, Christopher, Agincourt, Dorset Press, 1978, ISBN 0-88029-054-4. A somewhat (ahem!) imaginative description of Henry and the battle. Contains a lot of information about the events surrounding the battle, such as the siege of Harfleur and Henry's march to Calais. Appendices contain the complete text of Henry's Ordinances of War and Challenge to the Dauphin. Some interesting but not overly useful illustrations. Wildly pro-English viewpoint.
