Summary

Explore the captivating history of the Tudors!

Five Tudor monarchs sat on the throne of England and Ireland from 1485 to 1603. The family earned their royal rights through strategic planning and battlefield prowess, and kept them because of intellect, strength, and sheer determination. The Tudors, one of England’s most powerful and famous royal dynasties, knitted together a fragmented and small island nation that became one of the world’s financial, colonial, and technological superpowers. 

There is so much more to the story of these kings and queens than beheadings, political marriages, and the reformation of the church - but those events remain some of the family’s most enthralling moments. 

This captivating history audiobook covers topics such as:
 

  • The Tudors of Wales
  • The Wars of the Roses
  • Catherine of Valois, Mother of the Tudor Dynasty
  • Margaret Beaufort, Second Tudor Matriarch
  • King Henry VII
  • Arthur Tudor
  • King Henry VIII
  • Margaret Tudor, Sister of Henry VIII
  • Mary Tudor, Queen of France
  • The Birth of the Church of England
  • King Henry VIII: Wives Two and Three
  • King Henry VIII: The Last Three Wives
  • King Edward VI
  • The Nine Days’ Queen, Jane Grey
  • Elizabeth Tudor

  • And much more

Good audible, but need a video on it too.

You will find details on food, education, clothing, and other elements of the time period really made this book come alive for me. Well researched and documented, this is a must-read for anyone interested in the intrigue and deception surrounding the notorious Tudor dynasty.
