Publisher Description: King Edward IV is pleased with the work of Sir Anthony Woodville, Lord Scales. Baron Scales has taken charge of Carisbrooke Castle and the Isle of Wight. He also led a delegation to Brussels to negotiate with the Duke of Burgundy, won a great jousting tournament-and graciously accepted King Edward's call that the match was a tie. By the summer of 1467, when the king needs something done, Lord Anthony seems to be the first person who comes to the royal mind.These are risky times and King Edward's list of trusted lords has been seriously shrinking. Now, Anthony and the other Woodvilles seem to have moved to the top of the loyalty list. Warwick, the self-styled, Kingmaker, and other lords are falling off the list... and getting upset with the king's neglect. The result is that Lord Anthony, Baron Scales, not only has an impossible workload, but a more dangerous one. |
