A good introduction to the Wars of the Roses - or a refresher for those who've forgotten more than they learned about the conflict. This book is concise, which can be frustrating at times when more detail and explanation might help keep the various figures and their complex stories straight. Still, a good overview of the subject and a decent introductory text. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The vicious wars between the English noble houses of York and Lancaster marked the end of medieval England and the birth of the Renaissance. The end of that thirty-year period of strife and bloodshed saw the collapse of the great Plantagenet dynasty, rulers of all England and much of France for over three hundred years, and the rise of the Tudors. All the characters are here: Henry V and his luckless son, Henry VI, together with his unfortunate uncles, John of Bedford and Humphrey of Gloucester, not to mention the notorious Richard III and his nephews - The Princes in the Tower. Neillands skilfully tackles this complex period providing a clear and entertaining analysis. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
