really liked it

Another annoying incidence of getting 60% of the way through the book to find the rest references and indices!

On the whole, a strong book in a very crowded field looking at the Wars of the Roses and the reigns of Henry VI/Edward IV. Interestingly this author chooses to focus on the personality of Henry VI and judge the impact on his kingship, but focuses more on his traits and interestingly suggests that prior to his mental collapse of 1553, Henry VI was becoming a king worthy of the legacy of his father.
