Thomas, duke of Clarence (d. 1421) Born in 1387, the second son of Henry Bolingbroke (later king Henry IV of England) and Mary de Bohun, Thomas, who was created duke of Clarence in 1412, spent much of his life in the shadow of his brother, Henry V. Essentially a soldier, a man of bold spirit and undoubted courage, he favoured an aggressive policy of war against the French. Typically, he died fighting, leading a raid upon a Franco-Scottish force at Baugé (Maine-et-Loire) in March 1421. He was buried in Canterbury cathedral. G. L.
