My latest research continues concentrating on Richard III when he was Richard Duke of Gloucester, and his dual role of Lord Protector and High Constable of England. From April to June 1483 was a key period in his life which I covered in depth in my last book (Richard Duke of Gloucester as Lord Protector ... etc.), but it has been poorly served in the narratives of the day. I have therefore undertaken a thoroughgoing new edition and translation of the text written in 1483 by Domenico Mancini, which has been accepted too easily in its original translation by C.A.J. Armstrong. Domenico Mancini: de occupatione regni Anglie was published on 22 February 2021.
