A story so incredible it can only be true. Adventure, deadly passion and intrigue... History's most enduring mystery... A love story that may have inspired a beloved fairy tale and Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet... Known as Shakespeare's villain, Richard III is also the king who gave mankind "Blind Justice" and the legal concepts that flowered into modern Western democracy. Against the sweep of England's fifteenth century Wars of the Roses, Love & War, the first book in The Rose of York series, recreates Richard's tumultuous early years and his love affair with Anne Neville, the traitor's daughter he made his queen. With a Foreword by Roxane C. Murph, M.A., Former Chairman, Richard III Society, and author of Richard III: The Making of a Legend
