I selected a book in the library which has the title is: "Richard III and the Princes in the Tower." by A. J. Pollard. The book was printed in Hong Kong by Midas Printing Limited, but it's distributed by St. Martin's Press in 1991. "Richard III and the Princes in the Tower" really got my impression at the first sight because of its cover. It has two pictures and the people in these pictures probably come from Great Britain hundreds years ago. One of the picture is a man who looks very cold and that is the painting of Richard III. Indeed, on the very first line of the Chapter 1, the author wrote: "Richard III has divided opinion for five hundred years. To many he has always been a villain, a bloody tyrant and detestable child murderer deservedly overthrown." (Pollard 1).
