Shadow King, The Life and Death of King Henry VI with Lauren Johnson

Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-ie7tn-... Henry VI became king of England at the age of just nine months old, never knew his father and in many ways never truly grew up. His life was managed by a series of competing and often self-serving councillors. His many mental health issues placed incredible pressure on the court he nominally oversaw and thanks to his eventual overthrow at the hands of Edward, Earl of March, later Edward IV, we think of Henry as a largely inept, useless and pitiful figure, but was he? Well to discuss this fascinating man I am pleased to welcome back Lauren Johnson onto the podcast for a discussion all about him. Lauren’s book, Shadow King, the life and death of Henry VI acts as the basis of our conversation.
