The Wars of the Roses

England in the fifteenth century was a kingdom divided by blood, ambition, and fragile loyalty. As the monarchy weakened under Henry VI, rival branches of the royal family moved closer to open conflict. The houses of Lancaster and York fought for legitimacy, survival, and control of the crown, drawing nobles, soldiers, and ordinary communities into one of the most dramatic civil wars in English history.This book follows the decline of English power in France, the collapse of royal authority, the rise of Edward IV, the influence of Warwick the Kingmaker, the return and fall of Henry VI, the mystery of the Princes in the Tower, and the final confrontation between Richard III and Henry Tudor at the Battle of Bosworth Field. More than a story of battles, it reveals the human fears, shifting alliances, and political calculations that shaped the birth of the Tudor dynasty.
