As the paternal uncle of the Princes of the Tower, Richard, himself, could supply the necessary DNA to prove the identity of any suspected remains. Personally, I think that if Edward had been injured in any way shortly before he went into the tower, perhaps through a struggle, then he could have died rapidly due to any infection of the wound. And especially if he had any tendency to Diabetes, something surmised in Edward IV's rapid death and in his grandson Henry VIII's later ill health. There is a distinct resemblance between these two men.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542710597915055169.post-51804524416514019882013-08-01T09:22:52.182-04:002013-08-01T09:22:52.182-04:00This is a very excellent little story...grim, sad,...This is a very excellent little story...grim, sad, dystopian, but incredibly well-written and satisfying.<br />I shall now consider Hugh Howey as an author to watch out for.Andean, Inc.http://andean-inc.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542710597915055169.post-5261422024463644202013-07-08T22:04:42.274-04:002013-07-08T22:04:42.274-04:00I've been unable to find a print publisher for...I've been unable to find a print publisher for "Treason" since Bewrite Books closed. Endeavour Press publish the e-book, so, given lack of interest from print publishers, I'm self-publishing the paperback -- have just paid the bill. I too had to take into account the evidence of Richard III's skeleton, but decided that nothing warranted changes to the book, other than a new ending to the author's note at the end. But I did think hard about it.

I strongly recommend buying this edition because of the additional information. The History Press who notoriously uses tiny typeface in their paperbacks, is the publisher and the print edition that contains the new chapters and appendices is the paperback version, you might want to consider getting the digital version. You won't get the photos and illustrations, but at least you'll be able to read the text.Joanszhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00310350850882768819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542710597915055169.post-39649490271696977882013-03-14T16:08:55.463-04:002013-03-14T16:08:55.463-04:00Absolutely agree, a must read.

For that reason, I have the print version on order, and in addition, I have pre-ordered the print copy of the newly revised edition, which is due to be released in April 2013, I believe. It will include chapters on "the rest of the story," the project to find Richard's remains, the discovery, and identification of the remains. That will certainly be an essential complement to the earlier part of the story! All in all, I agree with you, JAH's books are must-haves for any serious Ricardian!
