What is England under the Yorkists and Tudors : 1471-1603 about?

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
