Description
Excerpt from Richard III, Vol. 1 of 2: As Duke of Gloucester and King of England
When brought together, and placed in opposition to the statements which. Have so long and so la mentably passed for history, the results were so convincing that the author felt encouraged to submit them to the public. She was well aware that in so doing she should Oppose herself to Opinions long and deeply rooted - to a part of our national historical belief, which it is something like heresy to dispute. But, strong in the power of the evidences she has analysed, and in the belief that no prejudice can withstand the truth when fairly and simply displayed, she indulges the hope that, her unwearied research having fortified her with facts, and her own views being supported by those who rank high in literary fame, she may be shielded from the charge either of defective judgment or of presumption in her bold undertaking.
