About this listen

In this episode, we’re going to explore the man known to history as the pretender to the English throne, Perkin Warbeck. I’m covering the pieces of contemporary evidence which suggests that maybe we shouldn’t trust everything the Tudors tell us. At least, not when it comes to making their enemies look bad in front of the history books. For full show notes head to https://georgeelmer.co.uk/perkin-warbeck/ Resources and Links “The Princes in the Tower: Solving History’s Greatest Cold Case” by Philippa Langley (2023). Langley is treating the Princes’ story as a cold case missing person’s report, summing up five years of research. “Perkin: A Story of Deception” by Ann Wroe (2003). Written to compare the confession to the contemporary evidence, where each differs and shares similarities.
