Summary "The Last of the Barons — Volume 05" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a historical novel set during the turbulent times of the Wars of the Roses in the late 15th century. This book explores themes of ambition, loyalty, and power within the feudal society of medieval England. It delves into the complex relationships between influential figures sharing the political landscape and examines the motivations and struggles of its characters amid the backdrop of a divided kingdom. In this volume, the story focuses on the powerful Earl of Warwick and his interactions with the prominent members of the Yorkist faction, including Richard of Gloucester and the Archbishop of York. As Warwick grapples with his past grievances against King Edward IV, the narrative unfolds with discussions of alliances and marriages, particularly concerning the potential union of Edward's sister and Clarence. The introduction of the sisters Isabel and Anne adds a familial dimension to the political intrigue, as Anne harbors a secret love for the exiled Prince Edward of Lancaster, enriching the drama and personal stakes involved. The novel paints a vivid picture of the medieval world, exploring the fall and rise of noble houses while highlighting the interplay between personal emotions and political maneuvering.
