Description & Specifications

The Wars of the Roses reached a bloody climax at the Battle of Bosworth on August 22, 1485. Within a few hours, on a tract of ordinary fields in Leicestershire, Richard III, Henry Tudor, and their supporters from the York and Lancaster families clashed. This decisive moment in English history must be recorded and clearly understood, yet controversies have confused the understanding of where and how the battle was fought. That is why Richard Mackinder's vividly illustrated and personal account of the search for evidence of the battle is such an absorbing read.

Using the findings of recent research, he guides the reader through every phase of the battle, from the camps of the opposing armies on the night before, through the movements of thousands of men during the battle and the major individual episodes, such as the death of the Duke of Norfolk, the intervention of Sir William Stanley, and the death of Richard III.

At every stage, he recounts what happened, where it happened, and what physical evidence has survived. A vivid impression of the battle emerges from his narrative, which is closely linked to the landscape scarred on that fateful day.
