In this classic work, Peter Hammond and the late V.B. Lamb survey
the life and times of Richard III and examine the contemporary
evidence for the events of his reign, tracing the origins of the
traditional version of his career as a murderous tyrant and its
development since his death. The evident grief of the citizens of
York on hearing of the death of Richard III - recording in the
Council Minutes that he had been 'piteously slane and murdered to
the Grete hevynesse of this citie' - is hardly consistent with the
view of the archetypal wicked uncle who murdered his nephews, the
Princes in the Tower, and there is an extraordinary discrepancy
between this monster and the man as he is revealed by contemporary
records. An ideal introduction to one of the greatest mysteries of
English history, this new edition is revised by Peter Hammond and
includes an introduction and notes.
