Download or read book Tudor England written by S. T. Bindoff and published by Penguin (Non-Classics). This book was released on 1991 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author sets the scene with a picture of the England of the late 15th century and examines the utterly different personalities and achievements of Henry VII and his flamboyant son Henry VIII. Subsequent chapters provide accounts of the great crisis over the succession and papal supremacy, the religious revolution and counter-revolution under Edward VI and Mary and the dawn of Elizabethan England. Although great events like the conflict with Mary Queen of Scots, and the defeat of the Spanish Armada are described in detail, this book never neglects the deeper issues, indeed, its stress on the underlying social, commercial and institutional developments makes clear just how far the foundations of modern Britain were laid in the 16th century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the period during which England became a modern state. In starting it at 1471, the author is following the view of historians today, for the Tudors built on the foundations already laid by the Yorkists. Mr. Helm emphasizes the results of research during the last thirty years : the relation of Henry VII to the Yorkists, the importance of Wolsey, the achievements of Thomas Cromwell, the Elizabethan Parliaments and the growing disenchantment in the last years of the sixteenth century. Ample space is given to social, economic and cultural matters and there are frequent quotations from contemporary accounts. Most chapters are followed by extracts from works of the period, which are intended to throw a general light on the various matters dealt with. -- Book jacket.
