Description

King Edward IV: A Struggle for the Throne Edward IV was a man who embodied the Plantagenet mould - tall, charismatic and a natural leader. He seized opportunities and won battles with ease, earning him a reputation as a brave and formidable military tactician. This book tells the story of his family background, the Yorkist takeover, and the tumultuous Wars of the Roses that shaped his life. Edward's journey was marked by controversy and turmoil. The Woodville marriage created tensions, while his deposition and subsequent exile set in motion a chain of events that would ultimately lead to his return and the decisive battles against Warwick and Margaret of Anjou. The book charts this complex period, exploring the struggles Edward faced as he fought to gain and retain the kingship of England. The outcome of Edward's struggle had far-reaching consequences for the country, paving the way for the Tudor dynasty. This book provides a detailed account of Edward IV's story, shedding light on a pivotal moment in English history.
