Summary Tudor England. Henry VIII is on the throne, but has no heir. Cardinal Wolsey is charged with securing his divorce. Into this atmosphere of distrust comes Thomas Cromwell - a man as ruthlessly ambitious in his wider politics as he is for himself. His reforming agenda is carried out in the grip of a self-interested parliament and a king who fluctuates between romantic passions and murderous rages.
Subject Cromwell, Thomas, Earl of Essex, 1485?-1540 -- Fiction.
Great Britain -- History -- Henry VIII, 1509-1547 -- Fiction.

SRP 2012 REVIEW: An absolutely brilliant account of Hanry VIII and The Great Matter: How to get rid of Queen Katherine so he can marry Anne Boleyn. Told from Thomas Cromwell's point of view, the story captures the volatility of the times and the machinations Cromwell uses to satisfy the king.

SRP 2012 REVIEW: Excellent book if you enjoy Tudor history. Well known story of Henry VIII's split from the church of Rome and his romance with Anne Boleyn told by Thomas Cromwell. Much detail of daily life and politics during that time.
