The best-selling author of The Templars and The Plantagenets recounts one of the most gripping and tragic chapters in British history. In the 15th century, the country experienced a series of long and bloody civil wars. The crown of England changed hands seven times, while representatives of noble families fought for the right to rule. Dan Jones concludes his epic history of medieval Britain with The War of the Rose and the White and shows how the Tudors defeated the Plantagenets and claimed the crown. He vividly describes the splendor of the royal court and the disasters, intrigues and conspiracies that befell the country, as well as famous battles - among them the battle of Towton, in which 28,000 people died, and at Bosworth, where the last king of the Plantagenet dynasty fell in battle. These are the real events behind the famous historical chronicles of Shakespeare, as well as the popular BBC series and served as the basis for the "Game of Thrones".
