Synopses & Reviews
In the Wars of the Roses the centre of gravity of the military situation was in Wales and the Marches. This classic survey, based largely on the words of contemporary chroniclers, poets and eye-witnesses, has been completely reset and newly illustrated, and includes a valuable new introduction by Ralph Griffiths.
