The White princess

cousins' war
When Henry Tudor picks up the crown of England from the mud of Bosworth Field after the last Plantagenet king's (Richard III) death, he knows he must marry Elizabeth of York, and unify a country divided by war for nearly twenty years. Elizabeth of York is the daughter of the White Queen Elizabeth, mother of the young princes in the Tower of London whose fate remains decisively unknown to this day. But Elizabeth of York is in love with the dead Richard III, slain by her new husband, Henry Tudor, on Bosworth Field. And meanwhile, imposters who claim to be the York prince in the Tower threaten the Tudor monarchy with relentless consistency.
