A review by dougsasser
Black Tudors: The Untold Story by

3.0

This was an ARC Goodreads.com giveaway. Kaufmann has published a version of her dissertation. It's a scholarly work. A fourth of the book consists of the end notes. She looks at specific people living in Tudor England. When details about the individuals are limited she fills in gaps by exploring what their professions would have looked like. She examines the lives of trumpeters, divers, sailors, tailors, prostitutes and others. This is a well written scholastic work.
