The Wars of the Roses by Alison Weir

4.0

This was a great book! I loved it. It did exactly what I wanted it to do, and filled my gap of knowledge between the Black Death/Hundred Years' War and the Tudors/Princes in the Tower of London. This is my second read by Alison Weir and I love the way she writes. It was FULL of knowledge; names, dates, events, etc. yet it wasn't dry. My only problem was it took me a while to read because it took so much attention to catch everything. It's not a book you can keep picking up and putting down (I tried to read some at work). Highly recommended for anyone interested in such a fascinating and important time in English history. By the way, Henry VI, what a dud!
