About this listen
For three decades in the 15th century, England was ripped apart by a dynastic civil war known as the Wars of the Roses. The red rose of Lancaster, the ruling house, was pitted against the white rose of York, its ambitious challenger.
What began as a political struggle over the weak and ineffectual King Henry VI soon exploded into open warfare, launching a cycle of betrayal, revenge, and slaughter. This episode untangles the complex claims and fierce personalities, from the brilliant Edward IV to the notorious Richard III and the formidable "Kingmaker" that defined the conflict.
Discover how this bloody Cousins' War led to the death of the Plantagenet dynasty and the birth of a new royal house that would change England forever: the Tudors.
