Description

Richard of Bordeaux, young heir to the throne after Edward the 3Rd, is enclosed by formidable uncles who think it'd be better for the nation when they can get the top. His luxury quickly brings him into conflict together with his people, while Rich reveals herself effective at reckless courage in beating the Peasants' Revolt. In a short time the master's most effective competitors threaten to depose him and face Rich. This is a vibrant image of Richard's courtroom, his commitment to his favorite Robert de Vere, his love for 2 Queens, intelligent Anne and the small Isabella, and of his headlong quest towards catastrophe.
