About this book

Richard II (The English Monarchs Series) by Saul, Professor Nigel. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780300070033.

This book-the first full-length biography of Richard II in more than fifty years-offers a radical reinterpretation of a complex king whose reign was characterized by a mixture of high principle and despotic legislation. Nigel Saul demonstrates that Richards` aim was to exalt and dignify the crown, but in a period of faction and feud his tactical errors and contradictory policies resulted in deposition and assassination.
