22 August 1485. Henry Tudor lay dead. The Battle of Bosworth was over and King Richard III rode into Leicester in triumph with the cheers of the people ringing in his ears. Elated at his victory and relieved that the Lancastrian threat to his throne was no more, he could now concentrate on ruling a country at peace. Though he still mourned his beloved wife who had died earlier that year, Richard realised that he must next make a suitable marriage to provide an heir to ensure the succession. After his return to Westminster, he discovered the truth of what had befallen his two nephews, the so-called Princes in the Tower, clearing him of any involvement. This is the story of what could have happened if Richard had been victorious at Bosworth. There would have been no tyrannical Tudors and no dissolution of the monasteries. Instead, England would have enjoyed years of peace and prosperity with enlightened laws that benefited the ordinary people in the reign of 'Good King Richard, ' loved by all who knew him.
