Synopsis:
The concluding volume to this rousing two-part history of the Wars of the Roses, England's longest and bloodiest civil war, narrated by a master historian.
England, 1462.
The Yorkist Edward IV has been king for three years since his victory at Towton. The former Lancastrian King Henry VI languishes in the Tower of London. But Edward will soon alienate his backers by favoring the family of his ambitious wife, Elizabeth Woodville. And he will fall out with his chief supporter, Warwick 'the Kingmaker," with dire consequences.
Told with extraordinary authority and narrative verve, Blood Royal is the second part of a two-volume history of the dynastic wars fought between the houses of Lancaster and York for the English throne from 1450 until 1485. Hugh Bicheno tells the story of the Wars of the Roses as an enthralling, character-driven saga of interwoven families, narrating each chapter from the point of view of a key player in the wider drama.
This latest volume describes three Lancastrian attempts to overthrow the Yorkists, ending with the death of Edward's successor, Richard III, at Bosworth in 1485'and the accession of Henry VII and the rise of the Tudor dynasty.
About the Author: Hugh Bicheno graduated from Cambridge and later joined the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). He is the author of Crescent and Cross: The Battle of Lepanto 1571, Razor's Edge: The Unofficial History of the Falklands War, Elizabeth's Sea Dogs, and Battle Royal. He lives in England.
