Stephen Porter is an acknowledged expert on London’s history. His other books include The Great Plague, London: A History in Paintings & Illustrations and Pepys’s London. He was a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and of the Royal Historical Society. Sadly he passed away before the publication of his work 'Edward III's Faithful Knight'.
'This excellent work brings the spirit of the Tudor city to life,
complete with descriptions of ale houses, glittering royal palaces
and the stinking slums by the River Thames.'
*BBC History Revealed, February 2017*
'Stephen's book brings to life the personalities and the ordinary
folk who spent their lives in the Tudor period in London town.
Essential reading for anyone interested in history and people.
Absolutely superb!'
*Books Monthly, January 2017*
'This very readable account is ideal for the general rather than
the academic reader.'
*The Bookbag, December 2016*
'This was a very enjoyable read. It's a volume crammed with
scholarly detail, a book to return to again and again as there's so
much more to learn.'
