In the turbulent England of the 16th century, the figure of Henry VIII stands as a fascinating and contradictory sovereign: humanist prince and warrior king, loving husband and ruthless spouse, defender of the Catholic faith and architect of a national Church independent of Rome. This sixth volume traces his complete life: from his gilded youth and his six marriages to the break with the papacy, the dissolution of the monasteries, the intrigues of the court, and the twilight of a monarch consumed by illness and paranoia. This book explores his lights and shadows, his political and religious decisions, and the impact they had on ordinary people, in order to answer a central question: was Henry VIII a tyrant, a reformer, or the father of modern England?
