Terrific book, by the author of The Lion in Winter. A very sympathetic look at King John, and revealing some of the misery that he must have known in his life as the littlest brother of a very talented family. Worth the hunt to find. Five stars.
Here's one I'd love to give a re-read. I recall finding it quite fascinating at the time, as I was quite clueless about the details of John's reign. (Some would say not much has changed...)
