It is a fascinating story very well told, and the plate section complements the text with some very good present-day photos of relevant locations in particular. My one slight criticism is that the genealogical table at the front, in large print, omits any lifespan dates. Keeping track of all the violent dates of death would have thus been facilitated a little.
If you enjoy this title, we also recommend a life of the woman from whom the Beauforts were descended, [[Katherine Swynford by Alison Weir]]. For lives of two of the Lancastrian monarchs, [[The Fears of Henry IV: The Life of England's Self-Made King by Ian Mortimer]] and [[Henry V: The Life of the Warrior King & the Battle of Agincourtby Teresa Cole]] examine much of the Beauforts' timespan in greater detail, while [[The Wars of the Roses by John Ashdown-Hill]] is an admirable account of the conflict in which so many of them met their doom.
