As the battle for royal supremacy raged between the houses of
Lancaster and York, Margaret Beaufort, who was descended from
Edward III and proved to be a critical threat to the Yorkist cause,
was forced to give up her son - she would be separated from him for
fourteen years. Surrounded by conspiracies in the enemy Yorkist
court, Margaret remained steadfast, only just escaping the
headman's axe as she plotted to overthrow Richard III and secure
her son the throne. Against all odds, in 1485 Henry Tudor was
victorious on the battlefield at Bosworth. Margaret's unceasing
efforts and royal blood saw her son crowned King Henry VII, and
Margaret became the most powerful woman in England. Nicola Tallis
unmasks the many myths that have attached themselves to Margaret
and reveals the real woman: an independent and vibrant character,
who would risk everything to become Queen in all but name.
