Product Description
Review
'It is hard to imagine a historian more in command of his subject, or better able to bring it howling and thundering to life... he directs his readers fastidiously and dramatically through the plots, the dynastic marriages, the murders... the result is history as compelling as any novel' Independent 'This [is a] splendid and vividly written book.' Evening Standard
Book Description
During the amazing 15th-century bloodbath of the Wars of the Roses, three kings, a Prince of Wales, and eight royal (or semi-royal) dukes died in battle, murder or sudden death, together with a third of the peerage and countless gentry. This is an account of the bloody combat between the rival dynasties of York and Lancaster. It seeks to bring to life the battles and drama of the ruinous conflict and recreate a picture of an England of great beauty and cruelty.
