The Tudors : a very peculiar history
Pipe, Jim, 1966-2024
Book
Tudor Britain was a very turbulent era, filled with bloodshed, betrayal and beheadings. When they weren't busy battling it out on Bosworth Field, they were earning themselves notorious nicknames like 'Bloody Mary' or feuding with the Catholic Church. This book takes a sideways look at this fascinating - but - fearsome time in British history, delving into the lives of each monarch and uncovering their dynastic squabbles, scandalous secrets and gruesome executions. Featuring fascinating facts, quirky comic-style illustrations, a full glossary, timeline and index, this perfect pocket-sized companion to the tumultuous Tudor period is great for gifting to all ages.
