richard the third by paul murray kendall

Paul Murray Kendall's Richard the Third is a readable biographical introduction of the last Plantagenet King of England that for many only comes to mind as the sinister hunchback of Shakespeare. It should be on the shelf of all Ricardians. He takes you inside the machinations of the various sectors and makes sense of it all. I can think of no better guide through this maze of constantly changing allegiances. Kendall has a real gift for portraying the various characters in this most confusing era of English history. I keep coming back to sections of this work in order to check the comments of other writers. So far as I can tell, he has rounded up all the available contemporary information about Richard and has woven it into a truly fascinating tale which is as engrossing as any fictional account. He quite fairly presents the evidence for the guilt of the three main suspects in the deaths of Edward V and his brother, the Duke of York. His scholarship is impeccable and his notes are fascinating.

Kendall is considered to be one of the most useful and excellent biographers of this much maligned king.
