About this listen

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Tudors, then pay attention....

Four captivating manuscripts in one audiobook:

  • The Tudors: A Captivating Guide to the History of England from Henry VII to Elizabeth I
  • The Wars of the Roses: A Captivating Guide to the English Civil Wars That Brought down the Plantagenet Dynasty and Put the Tudors on the Throne
  • The Six Wives of Henry VIII: A Captivating Guide to Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard, and Katherine Parr
  • Elizabeth I: A Captivating Guide to the Queen of England Who Was the Last of the Five Monarchs of the House of Tudor

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.

I still appreciate that a lot of time went into creating this audiobook but I am not sure of the use for it.

Not sure, still a good work

A bit dry for my flavors, but stimulating all the same. Recommended for Tudor devotees, maybe those taking a history class would benefit from reading this book.

The Tudor History.

Found the information very interesting although some parts were a bit repetitive but the inability of the narrator to pronounce many of the English place names is sloppy and just wrong. I hoped for more from this audiobook but I persevered and learned a lot from it

Very interesting but please learn how to pronounce English places

I’m a fan of the Tudor period but this book just jumps all over the place and hasn’t got any depth at all, if you know your history it will drive you mad.
Then the narrator,I don’t usually take much notice of narrator reviews as we all have our preferences however, he talks so fast I had to slow the speed down but he’s still going a mile a minute. Also you can allow some pronunciation differences , doesn’t usually bother me, but he couldn’t get basic words right over abs over. In one sentence he even named the wrong queen.
I would definitely recommend giving this a miss
