Beschrijving Henry VIII

Who was the real power behind the Tudor throne? Meet the men who shaped Henry VIII into the man - and monster - he became.



This new comprehensive biography of Henry VIII examines one of Britain's most notorious monarchs through the new angle of his male relationships. We know all about Henry's six wives - but what do we know about the men who shaped the crown?



From Henry VII, the first Tudor king, Henry's older brother Author who died when Henry was just eleven, to Henry's handsome jousting partners including one who married his sister in secret, and his warring advisors from Thomas More to Thomas Cromwell, who both ended up on the block - this will be the first book to focus upon Henry's relationships with the men who shaped his character and kingship.



Tracy Borman shows us this well-known monarch in a new light, and once again brings the Tudor court to life with her meticulous research and vivid storytelling.
