The two princes as shown on the jacket of Philippa Langley’s book ‘The Princes in the Tower’.
Here is a link to Philippa Langley’s blog – Revealing Richard III – with an up to date appraisal of the investigations so far led by Philippa aided and abetted by her team of researchers. Bravo! Many of you reading this will no doubt have already heard the podcast, followed by the documentary and hopefully been led to buy the book – The Princes in the Tower – which details with great clarity the story of Edward V and his brother Richard duke of York who have become known, thanks to Tudor (and modern) historians, as Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck.
I will add no more to this post – but shall leave it to Philippa. However I think I cannot miss adding the words spoken by John Dryden (1631-1700) which is on the home page of the Revealing Richard III blog and which are sadly all too true – marvellous stuff!
‘We find but few historians, of all ages, who have been diligent enough in their search for truth; it is their common method to take on trust what they deliver to the public, by which means a falsehood once received from a famous writer, becomes traditional to posterity’.
