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
Recently, I was having a conversation with a neighbor who was getting ready to retire from her company and was looking at starting a new career. Since I run my own business, she asked me how things were going with my business and how could she get started with her own business.
I gave her sound advice that she should create a business around a skill that she loves to do. My explanation is that if you create a business around something that you love to do then you will be less likely to stop if things become hard.
Little did I know that after talking with her that I would get the idea to write the eBook "Your Passionate Business". The purpose of this book is to help those looking to start a business, figure out what should be the focus of their business. The central theme is to help them determine that one skill that they are passionate about and then determine how they can turn it into a business.
