William Shakespeare's epic three-part chronicle of the events known as the Wars of the Roses, "Henry the Sixth Parts I-III" are among the finest of his history plays and features some of his most beloved characters, including "Mad" Queen Margaret and the scheming Duke of Gloucester, who will go on to become the infamous King Richard III in a later play.

Here, the story picks up after the death of King Henry V, who has left behind his infant son to be crowned King. As his minsters vie for power and to guide the young monarch, the French rally to regain the land lost to the English and they are led by a young, religious zealot named Joan la Pucelle (better known as Joan of Arc).

Over the course of the three plays, the York and Lancaster families battle each other for the right to place a King on the throne and the plot swirls around the kind but ineffectual King Henry VI, his impatient and ruthless wife, Queen Margaret, and the York faction, headed up by the brilliant but ambitious Richard, who has designs on the throne for himself.

Filled with political intrigue, murder, betrayal and some of the finest speeches in the canon, "Henry the Sixth, Parts I-III" are presented here in its original and unabridged format.
