A study in power - a fresh biography of Richard III by 'one of our brightest young historians' (David Starkey)

A dedicated brother and loyal stalwart to the Yorkist dynasty for most of his early life, Richard's personality was forged in the tribulation of exile and the brutality of combat. An ambitious nobleman and successful general with a loyal following, he could claim to have achieved every ambition in life except one: the crown.

By stripping back the legends that surround England's most controversial king and returning to original manuscript evidence, Chris Skidmore's compelling biography reveals Richard III (1452-1485) as contemporaries saw him.

Simon Sebag Montefiore

"A portrait that chills you to the bone...The unfolding horror comes from the slow burn of detail drawn from manuscript sources and recent scholarship judiciously presented, and in a story well told"
The Times
