Henry VII by Bryan Bevan Pdf

"Henry ruled over a splendid court never stinting expense. His greatest sorrow was the premature death of his son Prince Arthur and after his wife Elizabeth's death (1503) Henry's character deteriorated. He became mean and niggardly. Succeeding to an impoverished kingdom, his ambition was to make England important in the Europe of the time and in that he succeeded, leaving a prosperous kingdom to Henry VIII."--BOOK JACKET.

Henry VII (Penguin Monarchs) by Sean Cunningham Pdf

Part of the Penguin Monarchs series: short, fresh, expert accounts of England's rulers in a collectible format Henry VII was one of England's unlikeliest monarchs. An exile and outsider with barely a claim to the throne, his victory over Richard III at Bosworth Field seemed to many in 1485 only the latest in the sequence of violent convulsions among England's nobility that would come to be known as the Wars of the Roses - with little to suggest that the obscure Henry would last any longer than his predecessor. To break the cycle of division, usurpation, deposition and murder, he had both to maintain a grip on power and to convince England that his rule was both rightful and effective. Here, Sean Cunningham explores how, in his ruthless and controlling kingship, Henry VII did so, in the process founding the Tudor dynasty.

Henry VII's London in the Great Chronicle by Julia Boffey Pdf

This modernized extract from The Great Chronicle of London covers the reign of England's first Tudor king, Henry VII (1485-1509). It gives an eye-witness account of events in London, and of news from elsewhere, from the viewpoint of a well-to- do citizen who was closely involved in civic administration. It describes many notable public events: riots and uprisings, executions, coronations, royal marriages and funerals, and ceremonial activities involving the mayor and aldermen. Its year by year entries also cover matters like the weather, the cost of living, taxes, and the effects of building work undertaken in the city. Although its compiler worked to a scheme common to other London chronicles from the period, he was ready to express his own views on a number of matters, and wrote with keen observation and occasional wit.

Henry VII by Alexander Grant Pdf

The importance of Henry VII is the subject of heated debate. Did his reign mark the start of a new era, or was its prevailing characteristic continunity with the past? The pamphlet: ¿ emphasizes the lasting political stability established during the reign ¿ demonstrates the difference between Henry's policies and those of the Yorkists ¿ shows how successors built on Henry's legacy ¿ argues that victory at Bosworth in 1485 can be seen as initiating a genunine 'Tudor revolution in government'.

The English Parliaments of Henry VII 1485-1504 by P.R. Cavill Pdf

P.R. Cavill offers a major reinterpretation of early Tudor constitutional history. Parliament was not a fading institution - it was a key force in legitimating Henry VII's rule, and an important medium for subjects to communicate with government. Henry's reign emerges from this study as a constitutionally innovative period.
