The Wars Of The Roses
18
 
 
The Wars of the Roses (Men-at-arms) - Osprey Publishing
Much  myth  and  fantasy  surrounds  the  events  of  the  Wars  of  the Roses: a bloody and prolonged dynastic struggle between the houses of York and Lancaster. Terence Wise's fascinating text lays bare the real  story,  and  examines  the  armies,  liveries  and  badges  of  the conflict.  The  author's  readable  account  provides  a  comprehensive guide as to who fought whom, where, when, why and for what, from the  origins  of  the  Wars  to  such  famous  battles as Tewkesbury and Bosworth. The accompanying  photographs,  illustrations  and  colour plates by Gerry Embleton clearly detail the arms, armour and standards of the time.
