- Default Title
Description
This is the story of Richard Plantagenet, son of the Black Prince, nephew of John of Gaunt, and grandson of King Edward III. His mother, Joan, was the beautiful Princess of Wales, whose beauty brought her renown as the fair maid of Kent. At the age of about eleven, Richard Plantagenet was crowned king of England. As King Richard II, he chafed for years under the stewardship of a regency council. In 1380, Parliament declared Richard, who was by then married to Anne of Bohemia, of an age to govern without the regency council. Richard's lack of confidence prevented him from becoming a powerful ruler.
