Another writer, this time a Welsh one, Terry Breverton, climbs on
the bandwagon with a biography of "RichardIII - The King in the Car
Park".
The blurb holds out no hope for an unbiased, well rounded view of
Richard's life and achievements, particularly the quote from
Locke...
"Was he the grotesque usurper and murderer of the Princes
in the Tower, as depicted by Shakespeare just over a hundred years
after Richard's death in battle? Or has his name been blackened
over the years, as claimed by his apologists, the Richard III
Society? This biography sifts the contemporary evidence, placing
Richard in the context of his times, and assesses the likelihood
of other candidates put forward to have killed the Princes in the
Tower. John Locke wrote that 'the actions of men are the best
interpreters of their thoughts' and upon this basis the
investigation leads to one conclusion."
