Klappentext
A re-evaluation of politics and political structure in the reign of Henry VI (1422 61).

Zusammenfassung
Henry VI (142261) was one of the most spectacularly inadequate kings of England, and his reign dissolved into the conflict known as the Wars of the Roses. In explaining the nature of Henry's inadequacy, this 1996 book lays the emphasis on the political system, and thus offers the first truly structured narrative of the reign.
