Alison Weir's well-written, easy to read book about the Six Wives of Henry the VIII is an outstanding work of history about England in the 1500s, Henry's six wives, and the role they play in English politics and international relations with Spain, France and Germany.

from Ballantine Books
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
This obtuse speculation about the Infamous Lady Rocheford is the best sleeping pill I have ever encountered. If you have a restless night and want to quiet your mind with a soporific read, this is the book for you.
Read the reviews that give it one star... they are right on. The fact is...... more info

from St. Martin's Press
Price: $18.45

Mary I of England (1516-1558), the elder daughter of Henry VIII, has long been overshadowed by her younger half-sister Elizabeth. As it happens, Mary's "Bloody" reputation is a partly a construct of the following era, due largely to John Foxe and encouraged by Elizabeth herself. But many of the... more info

Customer Review:
Through careful evaluation of primary sources Eamon Duffy develops the thesis and affirms the reality that the Reformation in England was no reformation at all, but a top-down cultural genocide led by a conspiracy of unhappy radicals whose motivations and techniques anticipated Stalinism. Duffy... more info

Barone meant this as an intor for those who know little about the Glorious Revolution. He does a solic, unspectacular job. A bit slow in places, with some repitition, but always clear.

from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare by James Shapiro takes a novel approach in its presentation of Shakespeare. It resists both the urge to give a birth to death account of Shakespeare's life and the urge to form extensive conjectures based on what little is actually known about Shakespeare.... more info

from Houghton Mifflin Company
Price: $57.56

Customer Review:
What can I say? I wasn't impressed by this so-called "textbook." It doesn't seem matter-of-fact enough to be an actual textbook, yet isn't interesting enough to be considered a decent historical work. There is surprisingly little detail about the events here depicted.

I had to use this... more info
