Sample Book Insights:

#1 Richard, the son of the Black Prince, was born in 1367. His mother, who had been a widow when she married Edward the Black Prince, had no doubts that the boy was the most beautiful baby ever born in a royal bed. His father shared this satisfaction, but he did not smile often.

#2 The Black Prince’s second son, Richard of Bordeaux, was born in 1330. The prince acted quickly because he had only a few hours left before he began his costly and injudicious Spanish adventure. He announced that two of his favorite campaign companions, Sir Guichard d’Angle and Sir Simon Burley, would share the tutoring of the little prince.

#3 Richard of Bordeaux was a king who had been raised by his mother. He was a perceptive child, and he developed a taste for the artistic aspects of life when he was young. He was not fit to lead the proud but unlettered baronage of England.

#4 The Black Prince’s days were numbered. He had returned from Spain with a walnut-colored face from exposure to the Castilian sun, and his physicians advised that he return home immediately. He prepared reluctantly to leave the softer airs of Bordeaux for what he remembered as the rigors of England.
