Here's a nice copy of the first edition of a book about an unusual historical figure "Perkin: A Story of Deception" that has been SIGNED by author Ann Wroe
Wroe is The Special Features Editor at The Economist and has a Doctorate in Medieval History from Oxford University.
"This is the story of Perkin Warbeck, and one of the most compelling mysteries in English history."
Who was Perkin Warbeck?
"A diplomatic pawn and also one of the most keenly sought diplomatic prizes in Europe. He was used by the greatest European rulers of the age - The Emperor Maximilian Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, Charles VIII of France - for their own purposes. All who dealt with him gave him the identity they wished him to have: either The Duke of York or a jumped-up kid from Flanders. It's possible that he was neither.
It's possible that by the end, even he didn't know who he really was.
Published in 2003 by Jonathan Cape and SIGNED by the Author on the full title page. The book is in Fine condition.
