Edward IV: A Source Book (Sutton History Paperbacks)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Edward IV (1461-83), so often overshadowed by his younger brother and eventual successor Richard III is a controversial figure in his own right. Was he a lazy and licentious lightweight who much preferred his mistresses to his minsters and had little taste for the arduous day-to-day businsess of government? Or was he, rarther, a wise and successful monarch who laid the foundations for over a century of Tudor rule? This documentary study presents contmporary and near-contemporary sources for Edward IV and his reign, enabling the reader to appreciate why the king's reputation has fluctuated so markedly. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR003028239
