書籍簡介

血夏: 1381年英格蘭農民起義Summer of Blood

《十字軍》是《紐約時報》暢銷書的作者，也是《權力的遊戲》歷史事件的最高權威。《權力的遊戲》生動、血腥地描述了歷史上最著名的起義之一——英國人民反抗他們的封建主人的第一次大規模起義。

1381年夏天，飽受貧窮蹂躪和賦税壓迫的英格蘭人民起來了，要求表達他們的聲音。一支由神祕的瓦特·泰勒和富有遠見的傳教士約翰·鮑爾領導的下層軍隊，起來反抗14歲的理查二世和他最強大的領主和騎士，他們冒着財產和生命的危險，在一場絕望的戰鬥中拯救了英格蘭的王位。丹·瓊斯(Dan Jones)將這個極具煽動性的時刻刻畫得淋漓盡致，捕捉到了那個註定命運的夏天的理想主義和殘酷，當時一羣勇敢的男女敢於挑戰他們的領主，要求平等對待，併為自由而戰。

From the New York Times bestselling author of Crusaders and a top authority on the historical events that inspired Game of Thrones, a vivid, blood-soaked account of one of the most famous rebellions in history-the first mass uprising by the people of England against their feudal masters.

In the summer of 1381, ravaged by poverty and oppressed by taxes, the people of England rose up and demanded that their voices be heard. A ragtag army, led by the mysteri ous Wat Tyler and the visionary preacher John Ball, rose up against the fourteen-year-old Richard II and his most powerful lords and knights, who risked their property and their lives in a desperate battle to save the English crown. Dan Jones brings this incendiary moment to life and captures both the idealism and brutality of that fate ful summer, when a brave group of men and women dared to challenge their overlords, demand that they be treated equally, and fight for freedom.

金雀花王朝The Plantagenets: The Warrior Kings and Queens Who Made England

《紐約時報》暢銷書《十字軍》的作者講述了英國最偉大和最糟糕的王朝的故事——《權力的遊戲》(《華爾街日報》)

金雀花王朝的第一批國王從諾曼人手中繼承了一個血流成河的王國，並將其轉變為一個鼎盛時期從蘇格蘭延伸到耶路撒冷的帝國。在這部講述勇氣、背叛、野心和欺騙的史詩歷史中，丹·瓊斯重現了都鐸王朝之前難以駕馭的王室。他們造就了英國最好的和最壞的國王:亨利二世和他的妻子阿基坦的埃莉諾，兩個王后和基督教世界最著名的女人;他們的兒子獅心王理查在第三次十字軍東征中與薩拉丁作戰;還有他的兄弟約翰國王，他被迫根據《大憲章》賦予人民新的權利，這是我們自己的權利法案的基礎。結合*的學術研究和講故事的天賦，瓊斯生動地再現了班諾克本、克雷西和斯路易斯的偉大戰役，並揭示了受誹謗的國王愛德華二世和理查二世是如何走向滅亡的。這是一個騎士精神和黑死病、聖殿騎士團、議會的建立和百年戰爭的時代，當時英國的國家身份是由刀劍塑造的。

The New York Times bestseller, from the author of Crusaders, that tells the story of Britain's greatest and worst dynasty-"a real-life Game of Thrones" (The Wall Street Journal)

The first Plantagenet kings inherited a blood-soaked realm from the Normans and transformed it into an empire that stretched at its peak from Scotland to Jerusalem. In this epic narrative history of courage, treachery, ambition, and deception, Dan Jones resurrects the unruly royal dynasty that preceded the Tudors. They produced England's best and worst kings: Henry II and his wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, twice a queen and the most famous woman in Christendom; their son Richard the Lionheart, who fought Saladin in the Third Crusade; and his conniving brother King John, who was forced to grant his people new rights under the Magna Carta, the basis for our own bill of rights. Combining the latest academic research with a gift for storytelling, Jones vividly recreates the great battles of Bannockburn, Crecy, and Sluys and reveals how the maligned kings Edward II and Richard II met their downfalls. This is the era of chivalry and the Black Death, the Knights Templar, the founding of parliament, and the Hundred Years' War, when England's national identity was forged by the sword.

玫瑰戰爭Wars of The Roses

在15世紀的過程中，英格蘭的王冠易手了5次，因為金雀花王朝的兩個分支為統治的權利進行了殊死的鬥爭。在這部引人入勝的《金雀花王朝》(The Plantagenets)續作中，著名歷史學家丹·瓊斯(Dan Jones)描述了統治時間最長的英國王室是如何分崩離析的，直到最終被都鐸王朝取代。

一些最偉大的英雄和惡棍的歷史被一起在這動盪的年代,聖女貞德和亨利五世在阿金庫爾戰役的勝利標誌着中世紀君主的高點,理查三世,他謀殺了自己的侄子一個絕望的試圖保護他偷來的皇冠。這是一個任性的女王和配偶奪取權力，迫使人們服從他們的意志的時期。書中生動地描述了金雀花王朝的最後一位國王在陶頓和博斯沃思戰役中被殺的場景，充滿戲劇性的敍事歷史沉浸在混亂和陰謀之中。它還為都鐸王朝的宣傳提供了一個遲來的糾正，廢除了他們對所謂的玫瑰戰爭的自私描述。

The crown of England changed hands five times over the course of the fifteenth century, as two branches of the Plantagenet dynasty fought to the death for the right to rule. In this riveting follow-up to The Plantagenets, celebrated historian Dan Jones describes how the longest-reigning British royal family tore itself apart until it was finally replaced by the Tudors.

Some of the greatest heroes and villains of history were thrown together in these turbulent times, from Joan of Arc and Henry V, whose victory at Agincourt marked the high point of the medieval monarchy, to Richard III, who murdered his own nephews in a desperate bid to secure his stolen crown. This was a period when headstrong queens and consorts seized power and bent men to their will. With vivid de*ions of the battles of Towton and Bosworth, where the last Plantagenet king was slain, this dramatic narrative history revels in bedlam and intrigue. It also offers a long-overdue corrective to Tudor propaganda, dismantling their self-serving account of what they called the Wars of the Roses.
