Summary

"The Last of the Barons — Volume 07" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a historical novel that plunges into the heart of the Wars of the Roses. The story ignites amidst a heated rebellion led by Robin of Redesdale, compelling King Edward IV to confront a brewing storm of peasant uprising and noble discontent fueled by animosity toward the Woodvilles. As Lord Hastings urgently summons the king to a council chamber thick with war preparations, Edward’s resolve hardens, setting the stage for intense political showdowns and battlefield clashes. The narrative masterfully paints a picture of a kingdom teetering on the brink, where loyalty is a fragile commodity and the specter of betrayal looms large, highlighting the intricate relationships between the nobles, the crown, and the relentless march of war.
