The History of King Richard III

The History of King Richard III by Thomas More presents a vivid portrayal of the notorious monarch, emphasizing his physical deformities and tyrannical nature as characterized by his adversaries, particularly the Tudors. This Kindle edition features modern spelling and punctuation, alongside an introduction that connects the recent discovery of Richard's skeleton to More's critical depiction. Celebrated for its eloquence, the work is hailed as a masterful example of early sixteenth-century English prose and was published to coincide with the reburial of King Richard in March 2015.
