The Enquiring History: The Wars of the Roses: England 1450-1485
No Customer Reviews
This title covers the political history of England from 1450-1485. The content is gathered into ten discrete enquiries, for example - Why was London full of rebels in 1450? - Was Edward IV a success second time round? - How certain can we be about why Richard III took the crown?) which together help examine the fundamental paradox of this period: People at the time did not want civil war, and for the nobles loyalty to the monarch was all important...yet wars happened and kings were deposed. So the central question is 'If loyalty was so important and people in England did not want civil war, why did the Wars of the Roses happen?' which is a question worth answering.
