Richard II
Fletcher, Christopher
Richard II - Oxford University Press, USA 2008 - 337 pages
Richard II has long suffered from an effeminate reputation, but the real king was very different. This book argues that the king sought to assert his authority by acting in accordance with prevailing ideas of manhood, first through a military campaign, and then, fatally, through revenge against those who attempted to restrain him.
