Great book!
Easily one of the best books about the Wars of the Roses. Very engrossing with many primary and secondary sources scattered throughout. Pretty solid narration

Chronological, account of the time period, GREAT
most aimed at students of history, it gives a great timeliness of events. with a reasonable amount of author commentary, I guess to keep it from getting to dry.

Annoying Quotes
Although the rest of the book is well narrated, she all of a sudden will take on some strange Lord of the Rings or witch like voice when she is quoting. Instead of sounding more authentic, she sounds like she is having a stroke. Very jarring and unappealing.
