The Survival of the Princes in the Tower Murder, Mystery and Myth by Matthew Lewis The murder of the Princes in the Tower is one of the most infamous unsolved crimes in British history. Traditionally, the story has been told as a tale of ruthless uncle and victim, but Matthew Lewis explores alternative theories and motives, asking a crucial question: what if there was no murder? What if Edward V and his brother Richard, Duke of York survived their uncle's reign and even that of their brother-in-law Henry VII? By examining the context of their disappearance and the characters of the suspects, Lewis delves into the possibility that the princes may have survived. He considers the evidence for and against their deaths, providing a rounded and complete assessment of the mystery. This thought-provoking book offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating and enduring historical enigma. With its unique blend of history, mystery, and speculation, The Survival of the Princes in the Tower is a compelling read for anyone interested in the darker side of British history.
