Warwick the Kingmaker

Warwick the Kingmaker is a biography of Richard Neville, the 16th Earl of Warwick (1428-1471), written by British military historian Charles Oman (1860-1946). The book details Warwick's pivotal role in the Wars of the Roses (1455-1487), highlighting his alliances with Richard, Duke of York, and later with Henry VI's exiled queen, Margaret of Anjou, after a falling out with King Edward IV. Oman's work provides insight into Warwick's dual identity as a formidable warrior and a forward-thinking politician in medieval England.
