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>

Reviews

&quot;Following the principles put forth in this book will help us all to become the universal humans we were born to be. It's a step towards the conscious evolution of our planet. I endorse this work fully.&quot;<div>-Barbara Marx Hubbard, president, Foundation for Conscious Evolution<br /></div><br /><br /><div>February 16, 2009: Toni Lamotta's book is a delightful reminder of the truths we learn and relearn from wonderful and respected teachers brought together in a fresh new format.It is a welcome journey into the heart of Truth without disregarding the human factor. It's all well and good to remind me that thoughts are things, but please remember I have an ego at work simultaneously urging me to stub my toe and tumble downward into amnesia. Toni acknowledges the human tendency while guiding us ever toward the light of Peace and well being. It is a joy and I have recommeded it to my friends who remind me to focus on peace, abundance and joy and watch the wonderful way the Universe can work.<br /></div>
