Paperback. Condizione: Fair. The author of Powers and Thrones and presenter of Netflix's Secrets of Great British Castles offers a vivid account of the events that inspired Game of Thrones and Shakespeare's Henry IV and Richard III Discover the real history behind The Hollow Crown: The Wars of the Roses, the PBS Great Performance series of Shakespeare's plays, starring Judi Dench, Benedict Cumberbatch, Sofie Okenedo and Hugh Bonneville.  The crown of England changed hands five times over the course of the fifteenth century, as two branches of the Plantagenet dynasty fought to the death for the right to rule. In this riveting follow-up to The Plantagenets, celebrated historian Dan Jones describes how the longest-reigning British royal family tore itself apart until it was finally replaced by the Tudors. Some of the greatest heroes and villains of history were thrown together in these turbulent times, from Joan of Arc and Henry V, whose victory at Agincourt marked the high point of the medieval monarchy, to Richard III, who murdered his own nephews in a desperate bid to secure his stolen crown. This was a period when headstrong queens and consorts seized power and bent men to their will. With vivid descriptions of the battles of Towton and Bosworth, where the last Plantagenet king was slain, this dramatic narrative history revels in bedlam and intrigue. It also offers a long-overdue corrective to Tudor propaganda, dismantling their self-serving account of what they called the Wars of the Roses.   "If you're a fan of Game of Thrones or The Tudors then Dan Jones' swashbucklingly entertaining slice of medieval history will be right up your alley. Every bit as entertaining and readable as his previous blockbuster The Plantagenets." - Daily Express.…

The Crown of England changed hands 8 times over the course of the 15th Century, as two warring branches of the Plantagenet dynasty fought to the death for the right to rule. In this riveting follow-up to "The Plantagenets." Dan Jones describes how and why the longest-reigning British royal family tore itself apart in a brutal blood feud and finally succumbed to the upstart Tudors. Some of the great heroes and villains of history were thrown together in these turbulent times, from Joan of Arc, who stopped at nothing in her determination to defend France, to Richard III, who murdered his own nephews in a desperate bid to secure his stolen crown. Treachery and intrigue ruled the land. While Warwick the King-maker and Edward IV rounded up armies and sent those who betrayed them to the scaffold, Catherine of Valois, Margaret of Anjou and the beautiful, twice-married Elizabeth Woodville secretly schemed to secure the throne for their progeny. With an unforgettable description of the battle of Bosworth, where the last Plantagenet king was slain, this is a bold and dramatic narrative history for fans of "Games of Thrones" and "The White Queen.".…
