Within the Hollow Crown - Margaret Campbell Barnes

Well, author is certainly giving Richard a personality.  Early yet, so not sure how much will be history and how much imagined/projected.

 

Definitely a modern outlook where he's ahead of times in giving peasants consideration and listening to democratic ideals sort of thing.  

 

Definitely from a youthful prospective where, of course (snark), the imagination and energy and schemes of the younger set are clealry superior to the old fuddy duddies.
