4.0 out of 5 stars
Well researched and fun to read,
By Evelyn Hoffester "Eve" (VA, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: End of the House of Lancaster (Paperback)
The End of the House of Lancaster begins with the minority of Henry VI and his descent from his usurping grandfather, Henry IV, and it ends with him being deposed by Edward IV. The book is well-researched, citing and quoting many primary sources from the period, to the extent that I never disputed the facts. There are also many maps throughout the text which are useful when a certain battle is being discussed. The demise of Lancaster and the rising of York are both explained by bringing to life the two warring families (well one, actually, but they obviously didn't get along) and documenting their violent actions for a period of over twenty years.
I would recommend this book as a concise, easy to follow, and thorough history of Lacaster in the war of the roses. |
