The Wars of the Roses by Alison Weir
4.0
I loved this book! Alison Weir makes the people in history very real and interesting. I also really like how she is able to explain the complicated family, social, and realationship issues and dynamics surrounding the Wars of the Roses. She is also one of the more unbiased historical writers that I have found, stating facts and research from all points of view. A lot of books that I have read take sides in the Wars, Lancaster, York, or Tudor, and confusing an already confusing situation.
I will say that if you don't like history this is not going to be a fun read for you. "Wars of the Roses" is fascinating, but due to the times it is about, it is complicated and filled with names, dates, changing titles, and changing alliances. I couldn't put it down.
