Much myth and fantasy surrounds the events of the Wars of the Roses (1455-1485): a bloody and prolonged dynastic struggle between the houses of York and Lancaster.

The accompanying photographs, illustrations and colour plates by Gerry Embleton clearly detail the arms, armor and standards of the time.

Great book, fantastic price including postage!
Great book for a very light overview of the War of the Roses. Ideal for kids, or those just wanting a quick refresher on who's who and when the major battles were. The Men-At-Arms series of books were very popular when I was growing up, and probably a major contributor in my interest in history.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
