Items related to Richard III
The remit of this book is to investigate whether Richard III was a good guy or a bad guy, whether he was a wicked murderer or merely a victim of bad public opinion and propaganda. Michael Hicks uses contemporary sources to diclose Richard's life, his reputation and the events that shaped it. Although public opinion has now changed to being in support of Richard, Hicks discusses how Richard acquired such a bad reputation and `strips away the propaganda of the centuries to rescue Richard from his critics and supporters alike'.

From the Publisher:
Richard III has been written off in history as one of England’s evil kings. His usurpation of the throne from his nephew Edward V and then subsequent generations of pro–Tudor historians ensured his fame as the disfigured murderer portrayed by Shakespeare. In the twentieth century, Richard found his apologists, those who saw him as more sinned against than sinning. This biography—by the leading expert on Richard—strips away the propaganda of the centuries to rescue Richard from his critics and supporters alike, providing a balanced and compelling portrait of this most infamous of kings.
