À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Lancaster and York. For much of the fifteenth century, these two families were locked in battle for control of the English throne. Kings were murdered and deposed. Armies marched on London. Old noble names were ruined while rising dynasties seized power and lands. The war between the royal houses of Lancaster and York, the most complex in English history, profoundly altered the course of the monarchy. Alison Weir, one of the foremost authorities on British history, brings brilliantly to life both the war itself and the larger-tha-life figures who fought it on the great stage of England. The Wars of the Roses is history at its very best--swift and compelling, rich in character, pageantry, and drama, and vivid in its re-creation of an astonishing period of history.

  • The Wars of the Roses

    Not only is this book a must-read for the English history buff, it is a sure means of addiction to Alison Weir's masterful writing style. Ms. Weir, exhaustive in her research and factual detailing, brings the fifteenth century wars between the Houses of Lancaster and York to vivid life. In addition to the strife between the warring monarchs, the reader is also witness to the activities of the powerful, and frequently traitorous, nobility who served them. Leaving no stone unturned, the effects of these wars is chronicled from mightiest to lowliest, for in doing such, we see how the lives of even the commoners, the true base of the monarchial armies, were continually ravaged by bloodshed, devastation, and change. In this engrossingly captured time, the shadows of former kings ...

  • Did you ever wonder

    Perhaps we have been "over Tudored". I see no other reason why the excellent film which was made of "The Other Boleyn Girl" didn't have a better run at the box office. Perhaps we should now turn to finding out how Henry the Eighth's scramble for a male heir came about. Alison Weir's "War of the Roses" will explain the ins and outs of this period of English history. The machinations of Richard III, the story of John of Gaunt and his beautiful Kathryn and their offspring, the sad, never really explained tale of the Princes in the Tower. All of these things leading up to the winning of the throne by a member of an insignificant Welsh family in the person of Henry VI are covered in this wonderful book. Weir's very readable prose leads the reader through this maze. Its a fine read for ...

  • Textbook posing as literature

    If you want to read a textbook about the 14 & 1500's this would be great, otherwise it is dry and unless you are into British Royalty in the late 1400 & early 1500's then this was too boring to read!

  • Beginnings of Tudor/Stuart Dynasty

    The Houses of Lancaster and York are a favorite of mine and I purchase anything that Alison Weir puts on paper.Weir is "The female Shelby Foote"in my eyes.he is the paragon of British royal history. I have a Ph.D. in History but her work is so good that I enrich myself with her books. D
