I don’t think that Richard had the princes murdered another candidate could have been Henry V11. later on in Henry’s reign you had an uprising lead by Perkin Warbeck who said he was the youngest of the princes in the tower the duke of york and another so called imposter who’s name escapes me who said he was the son of the duke of clarence Richard 111′s brother. I don’t think Richard was a monster as Shakespeare made him in his play killing everyone that got in his way to his main issue the throne. it’s a great play and i admired especially Laurence Olivier’s characterization in his film. Tudor propaganda to blacken Richard’s name lets not forget when Shakespeare wrote the play Elizabeth 1 was Queen and she was the granddaughter of Henry V11 a certain amount of appeasement i think.

(That would be the 1980s.)

Probably my favorite history writer.

Yeah, I got entirely too very involved in this about a dozen years ago.

I read up on it in 1985, when there was a surge of interest around the 500th anniversary. I even attended a meeting of the Richard III society, before losing interest.

“The Last Plantangenet” by Thomas B. Costain.

And for the military/battle analysts “Tewkesbury 1471″ and “Bosworth 1485″ by Christopher Gravett.

Thus providing Tudor with the ‘bloody shirt’ to justify renewing the York/Lancaster feud.
