Graham Turner has been painting professionally since 1984, developing an early fascination with history into the central theme of his artistic career, the Wars of the Roses in particular providing a major inspiration and focus for his endeavours. The meticulous research that underpins each of his paintings led to his participation in the adrenalin-pumping medieval sport of jousting for several years, his personal experiences with horses and armour providing him with an even deeper understanding of his subject matter that vividly comes across in his work.
Beautifully illustrated and carefully researched… a unique and compelling book. A must have for anyone interested in this period. * Anne Curry, Emeritus Professor of Medieval History and Chair of the Battlefields Trust * It’s not often we are presented with the perfect opportunity to see through a window into the past, but in these fast-moving days of 2024 Graham Turner presents us with just that. * Living Medieval * The battle scenes are excellent, capturing the raw terror and confusion of a medieval battlefield, but also with a superb eye for detail… The renowned artist has produced a book of his paintings that are a perfect fit for those interested in the period. * Aspects of History * This is one of the best books published on the Wars of the Roses in recent years. It will prove an invaluable resource for amateur and academic historians alike, as well as wargamers, reenactors and anyone with a passing interest in this fascinating period of English history. * Toy Soldier Collector * If you only buy one book on the Wars of the Roses, make it this one, you won't be disappointed. * Battlefield * A picture is said to be worth a thousand words, and in the case of Graham Turner, very many more. This is a beautiful book full of memorable images, and it is also a comprehensive work of reference. * The Ricardian Bulletin *
