A King Under Siege: Book One of The Plantagenet Legacy
Description
<p>Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</p>
Story Behind The Book
I became a raw foodist in 2007, because I was sick and tired of feeling "sick and tired". Everything I had tried up until then was not working, making me feel sicker, and costing me more money, time, and quality of life. Deciding to change the way I ate to a high raw and living food diet was the best choice I ever made when it came to my health. From there I started blogging about my journey and how eating this way has helped me in so many ways. After publishing my first book in 2008-09, Raw-Riffic Food's 101 Super-Charged Juices, Shakes & Smoothies, many of my readers had asked if I would produce a book that explained more about the basics of this diet and lifestyle, and include recipes that they could transition with. I thought that this was the perfect opportunity to truly capture all that I had learned so far, and to include most of the recipes that I have enjoyed during my journey. Raw-Riffic Food's Raw Food Basics is a perfect reference book with over 250 recipes to help anyone interested in learning and experiencing the raw food diet for themselves.
