Richard III’s defeat at Bosworth in 1485 ushered in the era of Tudor. Henry VII wasnt so bad but Henry VIII was worst, IMHO. From the Dissolution to the loss of continental lands, “Great Harry” is the British Monarch i like the least.

British History is my hobby..

I have read so much about rehabilitating Richard III’s legacy. Most of the bad press around Richard III was written by Tudor propagandists ( Thomas More and William Shakespeare). See, they were at it way back then. The pen is a mighty sword LOL

I often wonder if Richard III was a victim of the MSM of that day..
