Summary	"1434: the Wars of the Roses are the backdrop for the founding of the Morland Dynasty. Power and prestige are the burning ambitions of the domineering, dour Yorkshireman Edward Morland. He sets out to secure his family's future by arranging a marriage between his son Robert, more poet than soldier, and Eleanor, a ward of the influential Beaufort family. Eleanor is appalled at having to marry a mere 'sheep-farmer', but despite her passion for Richard, Duke of York, she has to obey. Yet this apparently ill-matched union becomes both passionate and tender, and their life together promises prosperity and success - though all too often mingled with tragedy as they are embroiled in the civil strife which has divided familes and set neighbour against neighbour. This remarkable marriage truly lays the foundations for the Morland Dynasty." -- Back cover
