Summary
For Henry VII, the battle for the English throne didn't end at Bosworth. Nathen Amin explains how some Yorkist supporters rallied behind two significant attempts to topple the Tudors before the dynasty had a chance to take hold. It wasn't until the end of his reign that Henry VII could look back and see the results of his attempt to establish a new dynasty.
History shows us what's possible.
