The Wars of the roses - Trevor Royle

England's first civil war

KORTE INHOUD

The War of the Roses is the definitive account of one of the bloodiest episodes in British history - the battle between the houses of York and Lancaster. This gripping history reveals the brutal realities of a nation torn apart by conflict and rivalry, while evocatively placing the fighting within the context of a period of rich cultural progress. From Caxton's printing press and the flourishing of English literature to advances in architecture and education, Royle's masterly narrative is a remarkable portrait of this pivotal era.
