A wonderful book for any history lover. The War of the Roses is complicated to follow, but this book is written in a way that engages the reader and makes the players in the war easy to follow and remember. A must for any Tudor history fan.

A very enjoyable book for anyone interested in historical swordfighting. It will be of use to the historical European martial arts crowd, those involved in swordfighting for the theatre, writers who want to understand how swordfighting works to make their own descriptions more believable, and people who just love the idea of swordfighting as an actual, practical art.

The fight of the Bohemians against forces stronger than them in the Hussite War is one of the great feats of history. In the book, Warrior of God Jan Zizka and the Hussite Revolution, Victor Verney covers both the revolution and the life of one of the generals that made there victories possible. The reader is given a look at the political and social turmoil happening in Bohemia as the revolution rolled on and the military beat the odds time after time under the leadership of Jan Zizka. The author also gave a good in-depth look at the religious tensions that divided the Hussite communities.
