The women who married Henry VIIl have become definednot by the way they lived but by the way their lives ended. They are seen as victims of a bloated tyrant, deserving pity, but not respect. However, have we under-estimated them and are historians right to have merely portrayed them as bit-part pIayers in Henry's story? Using dramatic reconstruction and passionate narration, eminent historian and presenter Dr David Starkey focuseson the stories of the women themselves, revealing in intimate detail their experiences of sex, chiIdbirth and the gIamorous, dangerous Iife at court, including the deadly intrigues that dethroned them. |
