Review of Natalie Grueninger, The Final Year of Anne Boleyn (Pen and Sword, 2022)

This book focuses entirely on Anne’s last year. It tries to answer the question of how a woman who, in the Spring of 1535 if she was not entirely secure in her position as she had not yet borne a son, was at least able to anticipate that that lack would soon be remedied, could be facing death at the command of her husband a year later.
