內容簡介：
“WEIR’S BOOK OUTSHINES ALL PREVIOUS STUDIES OF HENRY.
Beautifully written, exhaustive in its research, it is a gem. . . .
She succeeds masterfully in making Henry and his six wives . . .
come alive for the reader.”
–Philadelphia Inquirer
Henry VIII, renowned
for his command of power and celebrated for his intellect, presided
over one of the most magnificent–and dangerous–courts in
Renaissance Europe. Never before has a detailed, personal biography
of this charismatic monarch been set against the cultural, social,
and political background of his glittering court. Now Alison Weir,
author of the finest royal chronicles of our time, brings to
vibrant life the turbulent, complex figure of the King. Packed with
colorful description, meticulous in historical detail, rich in
pageantry, intrigue, passion, and luxury, Weir brilliantly renders
King Henry VIII, his court, and the fascinating men and women who
vied for its pleasures and rewards. The result is an absolutely
spellbinding read.
