Abstract

It is the purpose of this thesis to show that the so-called "New Monarchy", commonly ascribed to the Tudor period, had its beginnings when Edward IV - strong in hereditary rights, successful in battle, and relying for support not only on many of the great barons, but also on the growing commercial classes and towns as well - restored the majesty of the Crown, and in a large measure reduced the country to order.
