Hardback. Condition: New. 'A stunning debut.' - Tracy BormanIn the late autumn of 1499, the Spanish Ambassador to King Henry VII groaned at the intrigues of an English noble family. 'As long as any Earl of Warwick lived,' he cried, 'England should never be cleansed or purged of civil war and privy sedition, so much was the name of Warwick.' Throughout Europe, the famous and fierce Warwick crest - the Bear and Ragged Staff - was a symbol of treachery, rebellion and war.For more than 650 years, the House of Warwick would shape the political and cultural destiny of England. From the 'Black Dog' to the 'Devil Warwick', the 'Kingmaker' to the Dudleys, this is the story of an English dynasty that emerged from the Midlands to (briefly) usurp the Crown. Only in the eighteenth century did the family dispense with their landed and political power in favour of the arts, transforming from a house of despots and brutes to one of dilettantes and bards.In England's Bears, Aaron Manning brings to life the world of a bloody and glorious dynasty and how its quest for power - and survival -shaped British history.'A masterful debut from Manning, effortlessly merging meticulous detail with absorbing storytelling. A work of passion vividly told.' - Nathan Amin.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The dramatic story of the House of Warwick, a thousand-year dynasty that shaped the fate and fortunes of England. For 650 years, the House of Warwick shaped the political and cultural destiny of England and its neighbours: from the Black Dog to the Devil Warwick, the Kingmaker to the Dudleys, their remarkable power saw them rise from Midland warlords to (briefly) usurping the English Crown. Some ruled in the name of kings and queens, others incited civil war and rebellion in the name of God, toppling and making monarchies, and ruling over the Midlands like emperors. Only in the eighteenth century did the overwhelmed family dispense of landed and political power in favour of the arts, transforming from a House of despots and brutes to that of dilettantes and bards. Rich in drama and intriguing original research, this sweeping narrative history discovers the real men and women of the House of Warwick, how they shaped the fate and fortunes of England, and their legacy over the Midlands today. At the heart of it all was their indomitable home Warwick Castle, where the relics of one thousand years of history survive, a last testament to the blood and glory of 'England's Bears'. Here, for the first time ever, England's Bears brings to life the world of a famous dynasty and its people, exploring how one family and their quest for power shaped the twists and turns of British history. AUTHOR: Aaron Manning is an historian, author and heritage professional. Born beneath the shadows of Warwick Castle, and formerly Head of History there, he is a specialist in castles and the House of Warwick. He is Director of the Warwick Words History Festival and works for Historic Royal Palaces, shaping historical research into engaging storytelling for the general public. 38 colour illustrations The dramatic story of the House of Warwick, a thousand-year dynasty that shaped the fate and fortunes of England Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
