Warwick the Kingmaker was a fifteenth-century celebrity; a military
hero, self-publicist and populist. For twelve years, he was the
arbiter of English politics, not hesitating to set up and put down
kings. In the dominant strand of recent English historical writing,
Warwick is condemned as a man who hindered the development of the
modern state, and yet in earlier centuries he was admired as an
exemplar of true nobility who defied the centralising tendencies of
the crown. A. J. Pollard offers a fresh assessment, to which
neither approach is entirely appropriate, of the man whose nickname
has become synonymous with power broking.
