Tudors Dynasty

Edward I dreamed big—perhaps too big. While remembered for his brutal campaigns in Wales and Scotland, Edward also longed to take the fight to France, only to be repeatedly pulled back by crises closer to home.Joined by Matthew Lewis, we examine how Edward’s crusading experience in the Holy Land, his views on conquest and treason, and his willingness to use extreme punishments shaped his reign. Together, we ask whether Edward’s reputation as a tyrant reflects cruelty—or a king trapped between imperial ambition and domestic rebellion.--Find Matt's Books wherever you get your books.Find Gone Medieval podcast wherever you get your podcasts!--Love the show?
