by Robert Fowke (Author)
A bind-up of two successful books from the series, 'Henry VIII' and 'Elizabeth I'. Set against a backdrop of turbulence in the royal courts, this book provides a wealth of facts on Tudor England. It examines the reigns of all the Tudor monarchs - Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I, describing the roles that their various relatives, friends and foes played along the way. Also included is information on what life was like for those away from the palaces, from squatters, servants and farmers through to explorers, pirates, poets and playwrights. Gruesome details on crime, punishment and basic medicine help complete the all-encompassing picture of Tudor life. Written in the fun and lively style common to this series. With black line illustrations throughout.
