The book is a detailed account of the life and reign of King Richard III, one of the most controversial monarchs in English history.

Jesse also delves into the various controversies surrounding Richard's character, including the accusations of his involvement in the murder of his nephews, the Princes in the Tower.Throughout the book, Jesse provides a well-researched and detailed account of the political and social climate of England during Richard's reign. He also offers insights into the personalities and motivations of the key players involved in Richard's rise and fall.Overall, Memoirs of King Richard the Third: And Some of His Contemporaries is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in English history, particularly the tumultuous period of the Wars of the Roses.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
