While the analysis isn't groundbreaking, it casts a well-researched time period in an intriguing light. Readers of popular history, especially of Tudor England, and of women's history will find much to enjoy.

This title deftly navigates a period of shifting alliances in a clear, concise fashion. Highly recommended for any academic or casual reader interested in the Wars of the Roses. Fans of Alison Weir's historical fiction and nonfiction works, as well as fans of Philippa Gregory's historical fiction series, "The Cousin's War," are likely to enjoy this.
