Keep Your Head: How to Survive as Henry VIII's Wife | Signed Paperback | Pre-Order EXCLUSIVE
From Tudor learning hub That’s Tudor History comes Keep Your Head: How to Survive as Henry VIII’s Wife by James T. Ball.
James T. Ball's work is "compelling," "hilarious," "well researched," "informative," and "must-read."
Henry VIII was a nasty piece of work. Volatile. Violent. Gluttonous. Yet he had no trouble with the ladies. The ladies, however, had trouble with him.
Surviving as Henry VIII’s wife meant carefully navigating The King’s difficult temperament, enduring the stench of his leg sores, and living up to the standards of your, admittedly, generous portrait. But even if you satisfied these demanding parameters, he may still have had you thrown to the dogs (or more accurately, the axeman).
In other words, it wasn’t easy being Henry VIII’s wife. In fact, no one involved with The King came out truly unscathed. So, if history were to repeat itself, what could his wives do differently in order to keep their heads? Keep Your Head: How to Survive as Henry VIII’s Wife explores that very question.
After reading this book, if you’re ever approached by a grotesquely bulbous king with a penchant for adultery, you’ll be prepared to accept his courtship without fear of his wrath—you’d have learned How to Survive as Henry VIII’s Wife.
Do away with dull dates and dynasties and enjoy an accessible introduction to Henry VIII, his wives and Tudor history.
