Description
The Lost King: The Search for Richard III The discovery of Richard III's remains in 2012 was a major breakthrough in the history of England's most controversial monarch. Fifty years after his death, the king's grave was lost, and his reputation was buried under a mound of Tudor propaganda. This book tells the story of the search for the lost king, from the initial investigation to the moment when the 500-year-old mystery was solved. Philippa Langley and Michael Jones, the team behind the discovery, reveal the remarkable story of their quest to uncover the truth about Richard III. They faced opposition from some of the country's most eminent historians, but their determination and expertise ultimately led to a major shift in our understanding of this pivotal figure in English history. The Lost King is a gripping and fascinating account of a woman who refused to be ignored and who took on the establishment to uncover the truth.
