A Goodreads user asked Kathryn Warner:

Just wondered if you might have uncovered any more specific information about how John of Eltham died. Documents state he died a "good death" which might have implied he died in battle. But other sources indicate he likely died of a fever. Might it be both? He was wounded and died of a fever resulting from his wounds?

Kathryn Warner I've never really looked at the primary sources for John's death, to be honest - perhaps he died after a skirmish, after getting a wound which became infected.
