From Henry IV, the first Lancastrian king, to Richard III, The Wars of the Roses follows the history of the kings of the houses of Lancaster and York who shaped this tumultuous period of English history. Anthony Cheetham provides insight into the politics, society, and economy of this time, and above all, he conveys the personal histories and characters of its rulers. About the series A Royal History of England:From the beginning of monarchical power in Norman times to the present queen, the British royal family has experienced many scandals, triumphs, and changes in public image, but few of their reigns can be described as uneventful. With contributions by specialist authors and contemporary illustrations of royal heraldry and coats of arms, Antonia Fraser has edited a definitive and entertaining history of one of the most powerful monarchies in the world.

Anthony Cheetham

The final weeks of Hitler's life saw him in a deteriorating mental state, in physical ill-health and liable to fits of gross irrationality. He must, surely, have known that defeat was inevitable, imminent, and that if any part of the legend he had so destructively built around himself was to be maintained he must not fall captive to the enemy. What was it to be - escape, or death - and how was it to be achieved. Since 1945 there has been continuous speculation about the lasy days of Hitler. Anton Jochaimsthaler offers a defining account of what actually happened, the result of years of extensive research and investigation. He discounts the false theories, assesses the witnesses, sifts every item of evidence to come to the truth. The constant twists and turns of cover-ups, intrigues and duplicity make for a read as absorbing as any thriller: But this is the true story of the most famous death of the Second World War.
