Richard of Cornwall
The English King of Germany
Darren BakerPostscript summary
Henry III’s younger brother Richard was one of Europe’s richest and most famous men. In 1257 he became the only Englishman ever to be elected king of Germany, although he would fail in his further ambition of becoming Holy Roman Emperor. Baker here takes a fresh approach to Richard’s life, emphasizing the vanity and simmering rivalry with Henry that formed a constant backdrop to his diplomatic and military activities.
