Children of Henry VIII

"Like anthropology, history and biography can demonstrate unfamiliar ways of feeling and being. Alison Weir's sympathetic collective biography 'The Children of Henry VIII' does just that, reminding us that human nature has changed--and for the better....[The] combination of spatial distance and political-religious rivalry could make a narrative bumpy or tedious, but Ms. Weir imparts movement and coherence while re-creating the suspense her characters endured and the suffering they inflicted."Weir, Alison is the author of 'Children of Henry VIII', published 1997 under ISBN 9780345407863 and ISBN 0345407865.
