The Eagle and The Hart with Helen Castor

Right trusty and well beloved, we greet you well!

It is my absolute pleasure to announce today’s guest - please welcome Helen Castor to the pod, and we talk about her new book The Eagle and the Hart - the Tragedy of Richard II and Henry IV.

Who were these kings? Who was Richard II and Henry IV? Let's see what was their story beyond what Shakespeare told us.

Why were their lives so intertwined? Did birthright matter in the end?
