The first book in the "Arzamas Book Series" is a lecture series about the Wars of the Roses, the legendary 15th-century conflict. Historian Elena Brown explains how the Houses of Lancaster and York fought for the crown, who won, and what roses have to do with it. In this book, you'll learn how the reign of Henry VI, who spent hours praying and always longed for peace, led to the Wars of the Roses; how Edward IV secretly married, lost, and then regained the throne; how Richard III lost his crown and why he was remembered as a deformed and cruel hunchback; and how the struggle between the Houses of Lancaster and York ended in victory for the Tudors. And there's a bonus lecture about how "Game of Thrones" ties into all of this.
