Historie

Step into the madcap medieval world of A Comic History of England, Book IV, where Gilbert Abbott à Beckett turns the tumultuous era of Henry IV to Richard III into a sidesplitting spectacle! From bumbling nobles to scheming kings, this uproarious volume skewers the Wars of the Roses, royal blunders, and the rise of the Tudors. It also explores Joan of Arc, and the truly astonishing Jacqueline of Hainault, a woman far more impressive than any English monarch.

Whether it’s Henry VI’s hapless reign, Edward IV’s dramatic escapades, or Richard III’s infamous legacy, à Beckett proves that history’s darkest dramas are also its funniest.

Perfect for fans of satire, history lovers with a sense of humor, or anyone who enjoys seeing pompous monarchs taken down a peg, this standalone volume delivers laughter alongside the Lancasters and Yorks, as they fight over the the princes in the tower and theendless succession of pretenders to the throne, while also pretending to the throne of France once England was in hand.

After all, why should history be serious when it’s this absurd?
