Descriptionof A Short History of the Wars of the Roses
Manufacturer

The book provides a comprehensive overview of the most important political events, describes in detail the 30-year struggle between the Lancaster and York dynasties, and analyses the formal clashes between royalist and rebel armies, such as the battles of St Albans, Towton and Bosworth. David Grummitt examines the role of key figures of the period, such as the kingmaker Earl of Warwick and Margaret of Anjou, who ruled in her husband's stead for a time, highlighting how their actions shaped events at local and national levels. Grummitt considers the violent developments of this complex period in the broader context of 15th-century kingship and the evolution of English political culture, without losing sight of the impact of war on the lives of those who both fought and were affected by the fighting.
