cc	The Wars of the Roses, 1377-1471, were a series of English civil wars fought for	O
	the control of the throne of England between two rival cadet branches of the	»
	House of Plantagenet, Lancaster and York. The Scottish historian Robert Balmain	D9
	Mowat (1883-1941) writes that these wars saw "the death of the old England and
	the beginning of the new." But they also saw the emergence of great
	personalities: the noble Richard of York, Warwick the Kingmaker, King Edward
1	IV, indolent and energetic by turns, and his relentless opponent, Margaret of	1
	Anjou, a true she-wolf of France.
