Passage to Pontefract: (Plantagenet Saga) (Plantagenet Saga, 10) - Softcover
Richard of Bordeaux, young heir to the throne after Edward the Third, is surrounded by ambitious uncles who believe it would be better for the country if they could take the crown.

Henry of Bolingbroke, son of John of Gaunt, is clever, subtle and absolutely set on achieving what his father had failed to ...
