|  | We already know the high artistic skills and powerful imagination of Graham Turner. In this book he has also shown himself a skilful historian, drawing on wide reading and careful attention to sources. His book is beautifully illustrated by his own work along with well chosen photographs of objects, sites and manuscripts. But it also gives us a carefully researched narrative and analysis of the Wars of the Roses which is eminently readable.In short this is a unique and compelling book. Visually fabulous - no other word for it. A must have book for anyone interested in this period. An amazing achievement.Professor Anne Curry |
