About John Ashdown-Hill

Early on, he went to the University of East Anglia from where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in French and History. He also taught classical civilization in Turkey, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Tunisia, even though he ultimately quit so that he could focus on historical research. In 2005, he said that he had found the DNA sequence of the late king and several of his brothers and sisters. By 2006 he was presenting his research finding to the London-based Richard III Society in the presence of the Duke of Gloucester, Prince Richard. In 2004, the author got funding from the BBC to look into the rumors that the remains of Richard III had been buried and then exhumed to be thrown into the Soar River. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Non-Fiction Books series, John Ashdown-Hill has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
