    Age 20

    Wars of the Roses was a series of English civil wars for control of the throne of England between the royal families House of Lancaster and the House of York. The name of the war was derived as the red rose was the symbol of the Lancastrians and the white rose was the symbol of the Yorks.

The book outlined morning, evening, and communion prayers and orders for baptism and marriage, thus making England a truly Protestant state.
