Author and historian Nathen Amin returns to The Commandery this October.
1483 was a truly turbulent year in English history.
A year of three kings, one infamous coup d’etat, one failed invasion and the curious disappearance of two royal princes – perhaps murdered by their uncle, perhaps not.
Bloodshed and conspiracy darkened every corner of England, as civil war threatened once again to tear the kingdom apart.
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
In this gripping talk, historian Nathen Amin takes us step-by-step through the drama-filled year, exploring the mystery of the Princes in the Tower, the ill-fated rise of Richard III, and the unexpected emergence of the Tudors – consequences we still feel today.
Tickets are £12.
