ByGraham Humphries

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
England, 1381 - The year of the Peasants’ Revolt. England is in a state of turmoil. The peasants are marching on London in protest against the Poll Tax. The tax is unfair and they cannot afford to pay it. 9 year old Jack lives in an Essex village. His father Thomas, a simple baker, emerges as one of the leaders of the Revolt, and leaves Jack and his family to join the rebels in London. What does Thomas say when he meets the boy king, Richard II? How does he keep the troublesome Wat Tyler in check and avoid disaster? Matters come to a head when the king’s soldiers are sent in. Will Jack ever see his father again? “The Seekers of Justice” is a compelling and moving story about one of the defining moments in English history. The book is charmingly illustrated throughout.
