Shakespeare's Kings: The Great Plays and the History of England in the Middle Ages: 1337-1485 by John Julius Norwich

5.0

To be clear, I'm rating this five stars not because I have any idea how correct it is historically, but because it's an entertaining and opinionated read that engages good-humoredly with Shakespeare's somewhat loose representation of the actual historical facts. Always fun to come to after seeing a Shakespeare history play to get more context, and fun to read cold for, you know, fun.
