What is Katherine Howard : the tragic story of Henry VIII's fifth queen about?
'an Impressive Revisionist Biography' The Times Looming Out Of The Encroaching Darkness Of The February Evening Was London Bridge, Still Ornamented With The Severed Heads Of Thomas Culpeper And Francis Dereham; The Terrible Price They Had Paid For Suspected Intimacy With The Queen. Katherine Now Reached The Tower Of London, Her Final Destination. Katherine Howard Was The Fifth Wife Of Henry Viii And Cousin To The Executed Anne Boleyn. She First Came To Court As A Young Girl Of Fourteen, But Even Prior To That Her Fate Had Been Sealed And She Was Doomed To Die. She Was Beheaded In 1542 For Crimes Of Adultery And Treason, In One Of The Most Sensational Scandals Of The Tudor Age. The Traditional Story Of Henry Viii's Fifth Queen Dwells On Her Sexual Exploits Before She Married The King, And Her Execution Is Seen As Her Just Dessert For Having Led An Abominable Life. However, The True Story Of Katherine Howard Could Not Be More Different. Far From Being A Dark Tale Of Court Factionalism And Conspiracy, Katherine's Story Is One Of Child Abuse, Family Ambition, Religious Conflict And Political And Sexual Intrigue. It Is Also A Tragic Love Story. A Bright, Kind And Intelligent Young Woman
