Welcome to the website of George Goodwin, historian and author of Fatal Colours
Fatal Colours vividly recreates the vibrant and violent atmosphere of fifteenth-century England and the turbulent and traumatic reign of Henry VI. The final resolution comes at Towton, possibly the largest and certainly the most brutal battle on English soil – a contest between two kings of England that changed both kingship and England forever.
