I just got done reading this book and it was very interesting take on Henry VIII's children and his great niece. It went in depth of each of the children and what happened during their reigns of England. I rated the book a 4 out of 5 stars.

Not really #AnarchyInTheUK , but Henry VIII‘s death didn‘t exactly leave a stable England. Edward VI was next in line, but the debatable question was the country‘s religion. Rebellions and persecutions ensued. Here‘s a biography on the “boy king,” whose death several years later really set England in a tailspin. #MarchIntoThe70s

Cinfhen Love all the history you add to your posts!! #EveryDayIsASchoolDay #LiveAndLearn 🤓 6y

Crazeedi I love reading about this period in UK history 6y

Crazeedi And actually love this period in world history! 6y
Lizpixie My choice is about the Gunpowder Plot which was a direct result of this part of history. Henry VIII‘s treatment of the priests & nuns plus the reclamation of any church land caused a lot of ill will for a very long time.⛪️ 6y
gradcat @Librarybelle I don‘t think anyone will be annoyed by your posts...it‘s great to learn things and especially great to find books on the various moments in history that have gotten us to where we are today. I, for one, say thanks to you! 6y

Being so fascinated with the Tudors, I've read many books on the Tudor Era and this was very good. It was well written, easy to read and I found it quite factual. I recommend this to anyone wanting to learn about this part of British history.

Interesting and informative, but a little dry at times with a cast of thousands. The illustrations are great though. If you are interested, I would start with his book Reformation as this goes into a lot of a detail about a specific period whereas I found Reformation a little more accessible, although it serves more as an overview.

Becca95 If you‘ve not already seen it then definitely check out The Crown on Netflix, one of my favourites! Or, if you‘ve got Amazon Prime and love a fantasy/period/drama, then go for Outlander! There‘s 3 seasons on there you can binge 👌🏼😂 7y
Cinfhen So awesome that you‘ll all be together 💕💕💕 7y
Cinfhen And Below Deck 😂😂😂😂can‘t get into that one 7y

MinDea I liked the first season of Bloodline, the last one got a little strange.... 7y
rubyslippersreads Seconding what @Becca95 said about The Crown. So addictive! 👑 7y
MinDea Riverdale, Gossip Girl 7y
Mdargusch Thanks @Becca95 - I started the Crown and I guess I need to get back to it. 7y
Mdargusch I love reality tv @cinfhen! 😍 7y
Mdargusch Yes very true @MinDea - we almost didn‘t get through it. 7y
Mdargusch Oh yes! River dale. We watched the first season @minder and that was a little weird too. 7y
Mdargusch I will make my husband start the Crown again @rubyslippersreads. It‘s not that we didn‘t like it, we just weren‘t compelled to watch the second episode. 7y
Becca95 @Mdargusch I would defiantly stick with it, it can seem a little slow but it‘s because it‘s following the story lines of all the characters and not just Queen Elizabeth ☺️ season 2 gets better as well! 7y
Cinfhen I LOVE BRAVO but not Below Deck 🙄 7y
MicheleinPhilly We‘ve recently started Broadchurch. We‘re hooked. Netflix. 7y
