E-text prepared by Paul Murray and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "History of the English People, Volume III" by John Richard Green is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume covers significant events in English history from 1399 to 1540, with a particular focus on the political landscape, including the rise of the House of Lancaster, the Wars of the Roses, and the reigns of key monarchs. It provides an in-depth exploration of political conflicts, governance, and social dynamics during this transformative period in England. The opening portion of the text begins with the deposition of King Richard II in 1399 and the subsequent coronation of Henry IV. It discusses the parliamentary procedures that led to Richard's removal and the establishment of Lancaster rule, highlighting the tension between the monarchy and parliament. As Henry IV struggles to maintain his authority, the text introduces the challenges posed by rebellions and competing claims to the throne, including the threats from Wales under Owen Glyndwr. It also touches on the growing discontent among the nobility and the implications for future conflicts, setting the stage for the Wars of the Roses. Overall, the beginning of this historical account intricately depicts a period rife with political turmoil and sets the foundation for the events that follow.
