More about the book

The book details the findings from the first national assessment of English battlefields, integrating historical texts with extensive fieldwork and advanced techniques like computer-based terrain reconstruction. It highlights a validated methodology for investigating battlefield sites, exemplified by the recent pinpointing of the Battle of Bosworth's actual location, which differs significantly from the traditionally accepted site. This work combines historical analysis with scientific inquiry to enhance our understanding of these significant locations.
