First published in 1600, it is a sequel to the play Henry IV, Part 1 and continues the story of King Henry IV and his troubled relationship with his son, Prince Hal.

It follows the rebellion of the Earl of Northumberland and his allies against King Henry IV, as well as the ongoing conflict between Prince Hal and his rival, Hotspur.
