CRAP !!


The "hunchback" legend was started by Sir Thomas More under Henry VII, who


defeated Richard in battle and succeeded him on the throne of England. Even


Richard's enemies commended his prowess as a knight, but he could not have


controlled a horse and used a battle axe - his favorite weapon - with a


withered arm.
