The Wars of the Roses didn't start on the battlefield: Blood Roses
traces it back to the beginning.Starting in 1245 with the founding of
the House of Lancaster, Kathryn Warner follows a twisted path of
political intrigue, bloody war and fascinating characters over 200
years. From the Barons' Wars to the overthrowing of Edward II, Eleanor
of Castile to Isabella of France, and true love to Loveday, Blood Roses
reframes some of the biggest events of the medieval era - not as
stand-alone conflicts, but as part of a long-running family feud that
would have drastic consequences.
