The discovery of King Richard III's body beneath a car park in Leicester is an astonishing archaeological find of enormous historical importance; and Philippa Langley's belief that she would find Richard in this exact place ranks among the great stories of passionate intuition and perseverance against the odds. Written in alternating chapters, with Richard's 15th-century life told by historian Michael Jones contrasting with the 21st-century eyewitness account of the search for the remains, The King's Grave will be both an extraordinary portrait of the last Plantagenet monarch and the inspiring story of a unique archaeological dig. Philippa Langley says: "The King's Grave will tell the full inside story of my long search for the mortal remains of Richard III as it actually unfolded." Michael Jones comments, "The search for Richard III lays to rest the Machiavellian anti-hero and puts the man firmly back into the context of his times." Roland Philipps said : "The King's Grave is destined to be the stand-out popular history title of 2013.  Even before I knew of Mike Jones's involvement I had been following the Leicester dig closely as I have always been fascinated by the character and story of Richard, as well as the accession of the Tudors in both history and as portrayed by Shakespeare. Mike's Bosworth 1485 is a brilliant work of forensic, historical clarity and his knowledge, combined with Philippa's passion and conviction that has led to this remarkable discovery and the new light it sheds, will combine to make a hugely compelling, accessible book: both a reassessment of history and a fascinating contemporary story." - Publisher.

This is the first full-length book about the discovery of Richard III's remains by the person who led the archeology team and the historian whose book spurred her on. The mystery of who Richard III really was has fascinated historians, readers and audiences familiar with Shakespeare's dastardly portrait of a hunchback monster of royalty for centuries. Earlier this year, the remains of a man with a curving spine, who possibly was killed in battle, were discovered underneath the paving of a parking lot in Leicester, England. Phillipa Langley, head of The Richard III Society, spurred on by the work of the historian Michael Jones, led the team who uncovered the remains, certain that she had found the bones of the monarch. When DNA verification later confirmed that the skeleton was, indeed, that of King Richard III, the discovery ranks among the great stories of passionate intuition and perseverance against the odds. The news of the discovery of Richard's remains has been widely reported by the British as well as worldwide and was front page news for both the New York Times and The Washington Post. Many believe that now, with King Richard III's skeleton in hand, historians will finally begin to understand what happened to him following the Battle of Bosworth Field (twenty miles or so from Leicester) and, ultimately, to know whether he was the hateful, unscrupulous monarch of Shakespeare's drama or a much more benevolent king interested in the common man. Written in alternating chapters, with Richard's 15th century life told by historian Michael Jones (author of the critically acclaimed Bosworth - 1485) contrasting with the 21st century eyewitness account of the search and discovery of the body by Philippa Langley, The King's Grave is both an extraordinary portrait of the last Plantagenet monarch and the inspiring story of the archaeological dig that finally brings the real King Richard III into the light of day. - Publisher.

In an incredible find, Richard III's remains have been uncovered beneath a car park in Leicester. In alternate chapters, Philippa Langley, whose years of research and belief that she would find Richard in this exact spot, reveals the inside story of the search for the king's grave, and historian Michael Jones tells of Richard's 15th-century life and death. The result is a compelling portrayal of one of our greatest archaeological discoveries, allowing a complete re-evaluation of our most controversial monarch - one that discards the distortions of later Tudor histories and puts the man firmly back into the context of his times.
