About this listen

Travel back in time to meet some of England’s boldest kings and queens!

Two manuscripts in one audiobook:

  • The Plantagenets: A Captivating Guide to the Rise and Fall of the House of Plantagenet
  • Edward I: A Captivating Guide to the Life and Death of the Hammer of the Scots and His Impact on the History of England

In the first part of this audiobook, you will discover:

  • How it all began: Learn how the Plantagenets started as a small family and became rulers of England.
  • The lives of kings and queens: Meet rulers like King John, who was such a weak ruler that his people forced him to agree to the Magna Carta, and Richard the Lionheart, who fought bravely but met a tragic end.
  • Legendary battles: Explore the famous Wars of the Roses, where family members fought against each other for the throne.
  • Secrets and scandals: The Plantagenets didn’t just fight on the battlefield; they also had to deal with backstabbing and secret plots in their own courts.
  • The fall of a dynasty: What caused the end of this powerful family’s rule? See how the Plantagenets went from ruling England to losing it all.

In the second part of this audiobook, you will learn about:

  • Edward’s early days as prince and the impact of his childhood.
  • The Welsh revolts and Edward’s eventual conquest of Wales.
  • Edward’s Holy Land Crusade.
  • Scotland’s crisis of succession and Edward’s long war with the Scots.
  • The rise of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce.
  • Edward’s final days as king.
