This text argues that the traditional view of Richard III is very near the truth - Shakespeare's Richard is closer to reality than the image of a betrayed hero favoured by his modern defenders.

His short life was filled with intrigue and slaughter, and he was the only king of England - other than Harold - to be defeated and killed in battle".
