Description

The present work is a military history of the Wars of the Roses. In the first part Anthony Goodman presents an overall view of thr campaigns, from the first skirmishes of 1452 to the last campaign in 1497, and examines the generalship of the commanders in both camps. In the second covering military organization - how armies were recruited, paid, fed, billeted, armed and deployed - he shows that in a period of rapid change in European methods of warfare the English were no so old-fashioned as has sometimes been supposed. In conclusion he assesses the effects of the wars on society in general.
