This is a masterly book. There is some criticism of Penn's portrayal of Richard but it is a balanced biography, Richard is shown as a capable administrator and soldier as well as a manipulative uncle. The mercurial nature of loyalties is shown brilliantly and the research is second to none. Unlike many worthy studies Penn has a modern writing style which draws the reader in and, by use of modern idiom, engages. ( )
