The Tudor Revolution #983318

The Tudor Revolution transformed England forever. Emerging from the instability of the Wars of the Roses, the Tudor dynasty restored royal authority, broke the country's centuries-old relationship with Rome, dissolved the monasteries, and reshaped the religious identity of the kingdom.

This volume explores the dramatic reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Mary I, revealing how political ambition, dynastic anxiety, religious conviction, and personal conflict changed the course of English history. From Henry VIII's desperate search for a male heir and his six marriages to the rise of Protestant reform, the destruction of monastic life, the Pilgrimage of Grace, and Mary I's attempt to restore Catholicism, each chapter presents the Tudor era as a deeply human struggle over faith, loyalty, power, and survival.
