Great Britain -- History -- House of York, 1461-1485 -- Fiction
NOTE.--Sir Walter Bradley's chronicle differs, in some parts, from the
histories of the majority of the writers of his time. His most
important contradictions of his contemporaries are:--
His description of the taking of Berwick--which place, the other
authorities state, was besieged for several weeks, by land and sea,
before it fell.
The death of King Edward--which event, other chroniclers state, took
place at Westminster, not Windsor.
The escape to France of the little Duke of York, who, it is more
generally believed, was murdered with his brother, in the Tower.
On all other important points Sir Walter's statements are corroborated
by his contemporaries.
