Yet Edward has not achieved the martial reputation of other warrior kings such as Henry V - perhaps because he fought battles against his own people in a civil war. It has also been suggested that he lacked the personal discipline expected of a truly great commander. But, as David Santiuste shows in this perceptive and highly readable new study, Edward was a formidable military leader whose strengths and subtlety have not been fully recognized.Great BritainHistoryWars of the Roses, 1455-1485Electronic books.942.044Santiuste David878751MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453003003321Edward IV and the Wars of the Roses1961952UNINA
