The civil wars of the first half of the fifteenth century still
stand in the popular imagination as the period of greatest anarchy
in English history. While historians have long taken a more
measured view, controversy still surrounds their interpretation. In
this revised edition of his revaluation of the Wars of the Roses,
A. J. Pollard has incorporated into the text the product of new
research and consideration of the debates which have emerged since
the book was first published in 1988. These include the new stress
on 'constitutional' history, intensified dispute about the origins
of the wars, and recent reinterpretations of the careers of some of
the principal personalities. In a topic which has become more
contested in the last decade of the twentieth century, this
introduction offers a succinct narrative, a review of the
historiography and an overview of the problems of interpretation of
the character, causes, impact and consequences of the wars which
periodically disrupted England between 1459 and 1487.
