One may assume...  we can conclude...Horrible way to come to a conclusion.  Because if that is deductive reasoning, then one may assume that Mark Garber is a closet Ricardian caught up in the fervor  of Richard III's body being discovered.We can conclude his whole purpose was to sway a guilty opinion away from Richard to poor Henry VII who had to be in the most unenviable position in all of history.  Talk about a Catch-22 situation.And then to completely defend Richard III as incapable of murdering his two nephews because of his compassionate nature...laughable.  After all, this is the same man who executed Hastings, someone completely loyal to him, without trial or defense of any kind.  Where was all this touted compassion then?Elizabeth of York, a ruthless, scheming woman?  Again, laughable.  The woman would have had to make a complete 180 turn in personality.  Beloved by her husband, her family and her people...no way could the same woman have ruthlessly murdered her own brothers.This whole book was written to smear the Tudors.  That was its sole aim.  Thank goodness it failed miserably.
