Flodden Field: A Tragedy is a historical play written by Alfred Austin, first published in 1903. The play is set in 1513 and focuses on the Battle of Flodden, which took place between Scotland and England. The play follows the story of James IV of Scotland, who leads his army to war against England’s King Henry VIII. The play explores the themes of war, politics, love, and tragedy, as the characters struggle with their loyalty to their country and their personal desires. The play is written in blank verse and features a cast of historical figures, including James IV, Henry VIII, and Catherine of Aragon. Flodden Field: A Tragedy is a poignant and moving portrayal of a pivotal moment in British history, and a powerful examination of the human cost of war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
