The Hollow Crown: The Wars of the Roses | Henry VI Part 2
Henry IV Part 2 is the second of three parts in The Hollow Crown: The Wars of the Roses. Bitter rivalries erupt into the Wars of the Roses. The feeble King Henry is overshadowed by Queen Margaret and her faction of Lancastrian Lords, his reign further undermined by disaffected nobles supporting the House of York. Battle and bloodshed ensue.
