After Richard II is deposed and dies in Pontefract Castle under mysterious circumstances, his cousin, Henry of Bolingbroke (by marriage the Duke of Lancaster), becomes Henry IV. From his usurpation of the crown arises the dispute over succession which will eventually lead to the War of the Roses. Henry spends most of his reign fighting those who had helped him. Adding to his problems is his rebellious son, Harry, whose reckless conduct and disreputable friends causes scandal. But when Harry becomes Henry V, he proves himself an able soldier when he recaptures Normandy. He marries Catherine of Valois, daughter of Charles VI, but reigns only nine short years before his death.
