Book Review: The Daughter of Time
Richard III, king of England from 1483-1485, is possibly the most-maligned monarch of history. Accused by Tudor and traditionalist "historians" of murdering his nephews, poisoning his wife, and wanting to marry his niece, the traditional image of him went nearly unchallenged until Josephine Tey published <I>The Daughter of Time</I>, which presents a well-reasoned rebuttal of the long-accepted "facts."
