Excerpt from Richard IV Plantagenet Although the taste for Historical Romance may be said to belong, itself, to bygone times, there are certain portions of our history which never lose their charm, while the exciting scenes they record are fully as sensational as any of those which the morbid fancy of the devourer of the shilling dread ful delights to revel in, and I fail to see why those stirring times should not be made to yield as much amusement to the readers of the present day as can be extracted from more commonplace and to my mind, less attractive subjects. Impelled by this thought, I have been led to dress up an old, weird legend in such a manner as to render it acceptable, even though four hundred years have passed away since the events referred to were fresh in the minds of men. I am mainly indebted to the memory of an old book which I was wont to pore over in my father's library some fifty odd years ago. It had no author's name, and professed to be the autobiography of a legitimate son of Richard III, born long before his parent's rise.

The hardcover version of this book can be bought here: Powells.com Amazon.com Richard IV: The Last White Rose is a masterpiece of historical fiction. Near the end of the fifteenth century, Richard Plantagenet - one of the two young princes rumoured-to-be murdered in the Tower of London by their uncle, Richard III re-emerged as a stunningly handsome young man seeking arms and monies to usurp the crown from the now King Henry VII, who referred to the would-be royal as "the Perkin Warbeck." Heir or pretender to the throne? There has been much scholarly debate around this question, but it remains a mystery. Richard IV presents one plausible identity to this fascinating historical figure. The climatic and compelling ending is not only suprising but alsoheart-rending, as it explores the feelings of those within his wide public sphere of influence as well as his intimate relationships. While maintaining the people, places,and events of history - the Battle of Bosworth, the War of the Roses, Richard Platagenet's arranged marrage to Katherine Gordon ( cousin of Scotland's James IV) - some have been conjured by the author within a tapestry of beautiful prose,rich dialogue, and plot twists that enhance the breadth of the depiction of Richard Plantagenet-Perkin Warbeck's life, as well as offering insight into the life in general in England and Europe in the late 1400s. Whether it's the tragic separation from his close companion, Alphonse, or his encounter with Shielogue, the witch with the royal past, Richard IV engrosses the reader in a world of hardship, war, brutality, joviality, profound friendship, and love - all intertwined.

Less well-known than his brothers, Edward IV and Richard III, little has been written about George, Duke of Clarence, leaving us with a series of unanswered questions: What was he really like? What set him and his brother Edward IV against one another? And who was really responsible for his death? George played a central role in the 'Wars of the Roses', played out by his family. But was George for York or Lancaster? Is the story of his drowning in a barrel of wine really true? And was 'false, fleeting, perjur'd Clarence' in some ways one of the role models behind the sixteenth-century defamation of Richard III? Finally, where was he buried and what became of his body? Could the DNA used recently to test the remains of his younger brother, Richard III, also reveal the truth about the supposed 'Clarence bones' in Tewkesbury? Here, John Ashdown-Hill brings us a new full biography of George, Duke of Clarence, which exposes the myths surrounding this important Plantagenet prince, and reveals the fascinating results of John's recent reexamination of the Clarence vault and its contents.

When Richard was born, being the youngest son and child of the Duke and Duchess of York, he seemed the most unlikely person to become King. He had learnt at Middleham Castle to be a soldier and a knight, and that is where he first met Anne Neville, later to be his wife. Life had ended abruptly when the Earl of Warwick had fallen out with Edward IV, and Richard was in Edward IV court with its plots and intrigues and unpopular scheming Woodvilles. Richard had married Anne, became the lord of the North, and was well loved. His whole life changed when news came of his brother Edward's death. He reluctantly went to London only to find himself in the middle of a hornet's nest. Tales of murder and Margaret Beaufort's hidden agendas had never made it easy. By the time Bosworth happened, Richard had certainly had nothing but bad luck during his time as King. He had lost his only son and only just become a widow, death must have been preferable. It had seemed that even in death, he had no luck. He was to become the product of Tudor propaganda, a villain in the history books.
