Thwarted Queen - Deluxe Hardcover Edition
From the Publisher
A saga about the Yorks, Lancasters & Nevilles, whose family feud inspired Season One of "Game of Thrones."
When Robert Baratheon died suddenly after a boar hunt, he left two young sons and an alarming wife.
When Edward IV, King of England, died suddenly after a fishing trip in April 1483, he left two young sons, a dangerous wife, and war broke out, the Yorks (Starks) battling the Lancasters (Lannisters.)
Thwarted Queen is told mainly in the voice of Lady Cecylee Neville (1415-1495), the Thwarted Queen, but other voices are important to his tale, not least those of the Londoners, who forged their own political destiny by engaging in a public debate with the powerful aristocrats of the time - Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester (the King's uncle), Richard, Duke of York (the King's cousin) and Richard, Earl of Warwick, (known as Warwick the Kingmaker) - and set the stage for American Democracy.
