What is The Tudor Age about?

The era of Shakespeare and Henry VII, of Sir Thomas More and Erasmus, the Tudor Age began in 1485 when Henry Tudor supplanted Richard III as King of England and ended in 1603 with the death of Elizabeth I. In this meticulously researched and sumptuously illustrated volume, noted historian Jasper Ridley vividly describes life in Tudor England, where glittering palaces and tournaments formed the backdrop for the merciless punishment of heretics and traitors. Ridley incisively recounts such major events as a expeditions of Sir Frances Drake and the defeat of the Spanish Armada; other signs of the time included Protestant rebellions, outbreaks of the plague and the flowering of Tudor home architecture. The Tudors' costumes and customs, furniture and food and other great achievements of the Age are presented here in a volume that is both beautiful and compelling
