Richard III: The Great Debate - History of King Richard III; Historic Doubts on the Life and Reign of King Richard III (The Folio Society)

244 pp. Edited, with introductions and index, by Paul Kendall. Includes portraits of Richard III, Sir Thomas More, Henry VII, Horace Walpole, Margaret, Countess of Richmond, Elizabeth Woodville, and images of preaching at St. Pauls, and the Tower and London Bridge. Sir Thomas More's and Horace Walpole's works on Richard III, together in one volume. More's work Richard III was published after his death, and while valuable for its literary skill, it is not known for its historical accuracy. Walpole originally asserted that Richard III's physical deformity was exaggerated, and that he was not responsible for some of the atrocities of which many accused him. He later reversed this view.
