He’s one of the most infamous leaders the world has known, a man whose outsized appetites for women and wine; food and fun, led to his legendary break with the Catholic Church and the transformation of England itself—and left six wives in his wake.
But who was Henry VIII, really, and what can we learn from the companions, servants and ministers who were both his friends and his rivals? Author Tracy Borman, Joint Chief Curator of Historic Royal Palaces provides a unique glimpse into life in Henry’s court and reveals why the Tudors and British royalty remain one of the most tantalizing topics in history.
