Summer of Blood: England's First Revolution

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Plantagenets and a top authority on the historical events that inspired Game of Thrones, a vivid, blood-soaked account of one of the most famous rebellions in historyâ€”the first mass uprising by the people of England against their feudal masters.Â

Look for Dan Jones'Â The TemplarsÂ in September 2017!Â
Â
In the summer of 1381, ravaged by poverty and oppressed by taxes, the people of England rose up and demanded that their voices be heard. A ragtag army, led by the mysteriÂous Wat Tyler and the visionary preacher John Ball, rose up against the fourteen-year-old Richard II and his most powerful lords and knights, who risked their property and their lives in a desperate battle to save the English crown. Dan Jones brings this incendiary moment to life and captures both the idealism and brutality of that fateÂful summer, when a brave group of men and women dared to challenge their overlords, demand that they be treated equally, and fight for freedom.
