The Lady in the Tower: The Fall of Anne Boleyn by Alison Weir

4.0

I'm slightly obsessed with the Tudors and always have been and Anne Boleyn has long been my favorite of Henry's wives. I've read a number of books about her and this one was good. It outlined many reasons showing the probability that Anne was innocent or at least mostly innocent of the charges laid against her, something I've always believed. So much of what she was accused of just doesn't make sense. I didn't find this to be the strongest of Weir's books I've read (I loved Innocent Traitor - a fictional account about Lady Jane Grey and The Children of England - non-fiction about Henry's three children) but it was a good account outlining Anne's final days.
