The Last Knight Errant

Více o knize

The biography explores the life of Sir Edward Woodville, a knight who balanced chivalric values with the emerging Renaissance influences of the 15th century. Christopher Wilkins highlights Woodville's significant yet often overlooked role in shaping the political landscape of England, Spain, and France during this transformative period. Drawing on extensive research, the book delves into Woodville's remarkable family background, including connections to royalty, and examines how his life intersected with pivotal historical events, particularly the political upheaval following Richard of York's coup.
