Hardback. 'Anyone who wishes to study the reign of Henry VI will need to start from the basis which Professor Griffiths provides' A.J. Pollard, Parliamentary History Henry VI is the youngest monarch ever to have ascended the English throne and the only English king to have been acknowledges by the French as rightfully King of France. His reign was the third longest since the Norman conquest and he came close to being declared a saint. This masterly study, unparalleled in its informative detail, examines the entire span of the king's reign, from the death of Henry V in 1422, when Henry was only nine months old, to the period of his insanity at the beginning of the Wars of the Roses and his dethronement in 1461, preceding his murder ten years later. This classic re-assessment of the third Lancastrian king is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of fifteenth-century England.This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

He had had none of the wide and varied experience that Henry IV, Edward IV, Richard III, even that Henry V or Henry VII gained as the scions of great English aristocratic houses; and he had never been able to observe another king of England at work. Secondly, Henry VI personally undertook the cares of kingship and brought his minority effectively to an end at an earlier age than did all other young English kings after 1066. Henry III had begun his personal rule in 1227 at the age of nineteen, King Edward III when he was eighteen; and Richard II, much as he strove to avoid it, lived under conciliar control until he was well-nigh twenty years of age. By contrast, Henry VI was just sixteen years old in November 1437 when he expressly asserted his royal prerogatives and virtually declared his minority ended; indeed, he had begun to take a positive part in government at.
