The Battle of Bosworth Field
The Battle Whatever else has been said of him (most of it negative propaganda by later Tudor "historians") no one can accuse Richard III of cowardice. He fought bravely to the end, and was eventually killed on the field, deserted by his friends and allies. Tradition tells that the crown of England was found upon a bush after the battle, and Henry Tudor placed it upon his own head. Results
