William Marshal by D Crouch
This is an examination of the career of William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke and Strigul. This book looks at his life serving under four different English monarchs, begining as tutor to Prince Henry in 1170, and finishing as regent for nine-year-old Henry III in 1216. The career of William Marshal (c. 1147-1219) throws a vivid light on power and politics in the intense world of the royal court under Henry II, Richard I and John. Not taking his biography at face value, the author uncovers the ruthless opportunist, the manipulative politician and astute courtier who knew how to get to the top and stay there.| SKU | Non disponible |
