Biography

(6 Jan 1367 – c. 14 Feb 1400) Ten years old at his succession, he showed what he could do at the Peasants' Revolt of 1381, where he defused the immediate threat to London and ordered the rebels to surrender, which they did. He started the tradition of addressing the King as "Highness". Like his great-grandfather, he didn't care for the war with France, being much more interested in art and architecture. He was also fond of good food, and had his cooks write a great cookbook, the Forme of Cury, one of the greatest surviving resources on the (upper-class) medieval kitchen. A group of nobles (the "Merciless Parliament") had some of his favorites executed for abusing his youth, and he repaid them in kind ten years later, including having his uncle, Thomas of Woodstock, smothered. The final straw came with the banishment for life of his cousin and the seizing of his valuable Lancastrian land. The other nobles rallied against him, and under the pressure, Richard folded.
