House of Treason: The Rise and Fall of a Tudor Dynasty

Descriere

The Tudor court was a snake pit of competing factions, and none was more Machiavellian than the Howard family. After John, first Duke of Norfolk, was killed fighting for Richard III at Bosworth, his son made his way into the favour of the victorious Henry VII, regaining his ancestral lands. Steeped in intrigue and treachery, this riveting history tells how the family provided two of Henry VIII's wives - and how its ambition led to its downfall.
