RICHARD III: The Maligned King

Annette Carson

A major reassessment of Richard III

Traces what really happened based on original sources
Disproves traditional assumptions common among historians
�The Princes in the Tower� � the reality behind the myth
The unpleasant truth about the first Henry Tudor

 Raises controversial questions:

Was Edward IV assassinated?
Did Queen Elizabeth Woodville engage in witchcraft?

The final truth may never be known, but after centuries of defamation
the case for reappraisal is long overdue

"Readers with little or no background knowledge of Richard III and his period will find this book quite easy to follow ... It will, I am sure, become a classic: essential reading for all established and budding Ricardians." � Bulletin of the Richard III Society
