Lady Jane Grey: Classic Histories Series
Author: Alison Plowden
Publisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0752467123
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
For most, the name of Lady Jane Grey means the 'nine days queen', the child who was used as a pawn in the power politics of the Tudor realm by both her parents, the Suffolks, and Northumberlands. Alison Plowden's new book tells the tragic story of Jane's life, and death, but also reveals her to be a woman of unusual strength of conviction, with an intelligence and steady faith beyond her years. Told with Alison's usual skill and adeptness, this is a story which will stir compassion in the hearts of the hardiest readers. It also gives us insight into the least known of Henry VIII's wives, Katherine Parr.

Author: Great Britain Public Record Office
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9781333126704
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 672
Book Description
Excerpt from Calendar of the State Papers Relating to Ireland, of the Reigns of Henry VIII., Edward Vi;, Mary, and Elizabeth: 1509 1573 The history of the inhabitants of the whole of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland is, and always has been from the earliest times, so intimately connected, that it is impossible to study the progress of any one portion without that of the rest; but still the details of the great events and leading historical catastrophes of several of the grander sections of the Empire are so diffuse and extensive that they are well classed and studied in separate divisions of the same whole. In accordance with this principle, the correspondence in this Department relative to the Viceregal Government of Ireland, has ever been preserved in a separate series. It consists of original despatches from the Lord Lieutenant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Henry VIII’s True Daughter
Author: Wendy J Dunn
Publisher: Pen and Sword History
ISBN: 1399012274
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The lives of Tudor women often offer faint but fascinating footnotes on the pages of history. The life of Catherine – or Katryn as her husband would one day pen her name – Carey, the daughter of Mary Boleyn and, as the weight of evidence suggests, Henry VIII, is one of those footnotes. As the possible daughter of Henry VIII, the niece of Anne Boleyn and the favourite of Elizabeth I, Catherine’s life offers us a unique perspective on the reigns of Henry and his children. In this book, Wendy J. Dunn takes these brief details of Catherine’s life and turns them into a rich account of a woman who deserves her story told. Following the faint trail provided of her life from her earliest years to her death in service to Queen Elizabeth, Dunn examines the evidence of Catherine’s parentage and views her world through the lens of her relationship with the royal family she served. This book presents an important story of a woman who saw and experienced much tragedy and political turmoil during the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Mary I – all of which prepared her to take on the vital role of one of Elizabeth I closest and most trusted women. It also prepared her to become the wife of one of Elizabeth's privy councillors – a man also trusted and relied on by the queen. Catherine served Elizabeth during the uncertain and challenging first years of her reign, a time when there was a question mark over whether she would succeed as queen regnant after the failures of England's first crowned regnant, her sister Mary. Through immense research and placing her in the context of her period, HENRY VIII’S TRUE DAUGHTER: CATHERINE CAREY, A TUDOR LIFE draws Catherine out of the shadows of history to take her true place as the daughter of Henry VIII and shows how vital women like Catherine were to Elizabeth and the ultimate victory of her reign.
