This Son of York - Paperback

by Anne Easter Smith (Author)

Richard III. A man. A king. A legend.

He ruled England for only two years, but the legacy of Richard III remains both fascinating and

divisive.

From his childhood in the intensely loyal and close-knit York family to his rise as a thoughtful but

troubled ruler, This Son of York is a passionate and deeply personal account of the life of

Richard III. A man who loved his family and his country. A king who struggled to overcome the

challenges not only of a turbulent time but his own human frailties. A legend whose true life is

only now coming to light.

Inspired by the discovery of Richard III's grave and its revelations, award-winning author Anne

Easter Smith brings together her decades of intense research, five celebrated novels on the

Wars of the Roses, and her sustained passion for Richard III in this culminating book on the last

Plantagenet king.
