Reviews

Jaunty, authoritative . . . [a] fine, timely study of English history's greatest pantomime villain.
Hugely enjoyable
Scholarly and readable . . . the John that emerges is still a tyrant, but a more complex figure in a complex time.
Restores complexity to the myth of John as a cruel, unstable ogre.
