520    The Tudor dynasty traditionally starts with Henry VII's 
       victory at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485. In 
       reality, however, the story of England's most popular 
       dynasty starts much earlier-and it starts with three 
       courageous women who shaped their own destiny. The Tudor 
       dynasty traces its origin to Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret
       Beaufort and Elizabeth of York-women who waged through 
       blood and loss in order to finally emerge as the ultimate 
       female survivors of the Wars of the Roses. Their 
       posthumous images, however, couldn't be more different, 
       and their lives are still shrouded in mystery. Elizabeth 
       Woodville, the first commoner to marry a King of England, 
       is chiefly remembered as a greedy queen who elevated her 
       huge family, causing a stir in the realm. Margaret 
       Beaufort, mother of the victorious Henry Tudor, is 
       immortalised in history as an overly ambitious, scheming 
       woman who ran her son's court, pushing his wife aside. 
       Elizabeth of York, the eldest daughter of Elizabeth 
       Woodville and Edward IV, is perceived as a queen subjected
       to her mother-in-law and trapped in a loveless marriage to
       a man who ousted the last Yorkist King. It is time to 
       dispel some of the most enduring myths about these 
       extraordinary women who ultimately shaped the early Tudor 
       dynasty. - Why were Elizabeth Woodville and her mother 
       accused of witchcraft? - Was Margaret Beaufort a "mother-
       in-law from hell"? - Did Elizabeth of York have an 
       incestuous relationship with her uncle, Richard III? These
       are only a few of the controversial questions discussed in
       this book. Within these pages, you will learn much more 
       about the three women who emerged victorious from the Wars
       of the Roses, who tried to rebuild their lives while 
       adjusting to the new, post-war Tudor era, and who founded 
       a dynasty that would reign for more than a century.
