The Tudor family is a strange flower in Britain. The story of this family has been well written, but its true identity is more extraordinary than people give it credit for.
The history of the Tudor family usually starts with the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, and the historical stage before Henry VIII and the Reformation is often brushed aside. However, the family's unknown Welsh ancestor, the 13-year-old mother-to-be who later helped found the entire dynasty, and her son Henry VII - who struggled during his childhood but rose to the pinnacle of power - are also important parts of the Tudor family history. It is this past that is not often mentioned that shaped the Tudor family.
Based on this unique perspective, Linda de Lisle leads us to understand the Tudor dynasty from the family's perspective and understand this series of key figures and events - from the prince in the tower to Queen Elizabeth.
This book tells the story of the rise and fall of the Tudor family in England from 1427 to 1603. The author tells the history from the reign of Henry VII to Elizabeth I in chronological order. Through this book, readers can clearly understand the rise and fall of the Tudor dynasty in the fields of politics, economy, culture, and diplomacy, and then gain a deeper understanding of Britain's historical process from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, and from the feudal era to modernization.
