Unlike castles and cathedrals, the battlefields situated around the
UK are not easily found and require some background knowledge of
the contender's tactics, the cause of the battle and its effect on
history to be fully appreciated. At first sight, Bosworth is a
piece of rural landscape, yet here a royal house was brought to an
end and the Tudor age began. The object of this guidebook is to
locate and describe the battlefields and to vividly depict the
events of the day and the reasoning behind the fighting. Unlike the
rest of Europe, Britain's battles were mainly inspired by internal
conflict and here the authors demystify the politics behind the
encounters and quarrels to reveal what happened at Britain's battle
sites from the Saxons to the Jacobite Rebellions. An ideal handbook
for the enthusiast or tourist alike, this illustrated guide offers
a passport to history.
