Well to discuss all of this, I am pleased to welcome historian Nathen Amin onto the podcast for the first time, to discuss his book, Son of Prophecy, the Rise of Henry Tudor with me. From Henry's 6 x great-grandfather who presented his prince with three severed heads as a present, to Henry Tudors grandfather Owen Tudor nibbling the cheek of Catherine of Valois, all of this and much more will be covered, so settle in and get one hell of a lesson in Welsh and Tudor history!
