Sociability and Power in Late Stuart England: The Cultural Worlds of the Verneys 1660-1720
Yes I know More is a saint and all, but that doesn't make this work worth while. It is a piece of spin, based on hearsay, and intended to contribute to the trashing of the reputation of King Richard III. Yes, that Richard, who reigned for barely two years and who lost the ultimate battle at Bosworth. He LOST, Tommy! So why did you feel the need, so much later, to continue trashing him? Why was it necessary? Answer me that. Maybe, just maybe, there was the memory of Good King Richard. Trial by jury, justice for the poor, laws in English. There would have been much more if Richard had lived. And now Richard has been buried with dignity and honour, and thousands go to pay respect - no one goes to YOUR grave, you twisted old pervert.
