The History of King Richard III by Thomas More, the celebrated 'man for all seasons', gives us King Richard red in tooth and claw; every inch the merciless tyrant the Tudors wanted us to believe he was. The Langley Press edition of this neglected classic includes modern spelling and punctuation, and an introduction showing how the recent discovery of the king's skeleton sheds light on More's spectacular hatchet-job.
