Such Is My Dance: The Life of Antony Woodville, 2nd Earl Rivers

Antony Woodville, medieval star of the much maligned Woodville family, lived a life of unadulterated luxury. His parents were highly regarded at court, his sister married the young king Edward IV, he had huge estates and a rich wife, all that anyone could wish to have in the 15thc. Behind the riches and flamboyant lifestyle was an intellectual mind. He travelled widely, read books when he could get them and translated the very first book published in England by his friend. This life came to an abrupt end when he crossed swords with the Lord Protector, later crowned Richard III. This is Antony's own story, his words, his feelings, his observations on a turbulent time in English history.
