Henry VIII and his Daughter Mary
Mary Tudor has always been known as ‘Bloody Mary’, the name given to her by later Protestant chroniclers who vilified her for attempting to re-impose Roman Catholicism in England. Recently, more nuanced accounts of Mary's life have been written, but many now portray her as 'tragic' Mary, which is not necessarily a complete picture either.
Friends & Foes of Kings
The Grey family was one of mediaeval England’s most important dynasties, serving the kings of England as sheriffs, barons and military leaders from the reign of William the Conqueror.
A beautiful perpetual diary, with fascinating Tudor facts for every day of the year, which I co-authored with my Tudor Times colleague.
A beautiful journal combining gardening and Tudor history, which I co-authored with my Tudor Times colleague. It's definitely my personal favourite of the Tudor Times books, as I enjoy gardening. Researching it was fascinating, and one day, I am going to try to have a Shakespeare Garden.
Another of the Tudor Times Books of Days, which I co-authored, this one focuses on the long reign and fascinating life of Queen Elizabeth I.
The fourth in the Tudor Times collection that I co-authored, this focuses on the ever-fascinating and enigmatic Mary, Queen of Scots.
