Henry the Sixth is the most tragic figure on the English throne - in the new historical book by Alexandra Marinina. He took his father's throne at eight months old. At the age of nine he was crowned with the French crown. It seemed that William the Conqueror's golden dream of a ‘single and indivisible’ Anglo-French monarchy had come true. But it didn’t work out... Henry the Sixth lost, he lost everything! He lost the Hundred Years' War to Joan of Arc and her Orleanians.
