The reign of Richard III was one of the shortest in British
history, yet he remains one of the most enigmatic and controversial
personalities who occupied the throne. This informative guide
traces the life of Richard and his seemingly contradictory
qualities, of loyalty and perfidy, generosity and self-interest,
honesty and manipulation. From his initial position far down the
line of succession to his position as Lieutenant-General of the
North and move to the throne in 1483, Richard's story is
fascinatingly explored. Sections engagingly cover the controversies
surrounding Richard such as the Princes in the Tower and the Battle
of Bosworth.In February 2013, a skeleton uncovered in the ruins of
Grey Friars Church in Leicester was identified as the remains of
Richard III. The remains found were proved to be Richard's 'beyond
reasonable doubt' through DNA tests. But what was this man really
like? A ruthless manipulator, or a tragic figure? Michael St John
Parker's guide delves into the life of Richard with colour
photographs, illustrations and artefacts.
