What is The autobiography of Henry VIII : with notes by his fool, Will Somers : a novel about?
From Publishers WeeklyGeorge presents a romanticized Henry VIII and fails to capture the "brilliance, the cunning or the ruthlessness of the grim monarch who tore down monasteries to fill his coffers, executed two of his six wives and sacrificed friend and enemy alike for political expediency," PW commented. Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc. Review"A remarkable achievement...Magnificently researched and admirably written." --_Mary Stewart_ "Her novel is a...banquet feast for most readers...astonishing. There's rousing drama, robust atmosphere and consistently solid characterization; and finally, Margaret George's triumph is anchored in the urgent rhythm her writing attains." --_Forth Worth Star Telegram_ "It doth brim with lust, violence, cruelty and living conservation...Margaret George has found a new and fresh way to tell the story. --_Detroit Free Press_-- Review
