The Private Lives of the Tudors: Uncovering the Secrets of Britain's Greatest Dynasty by Tracy Borman

3.0

Borman meticulously reconstructs the working everyday world of the Tudors palaces and court, digging into the account books, wardrobe storage rooms and memoirs of the managers of the vast establishment that kept the monarch's world spinning. Although this is very well done, there is no new revelation here, like those to be found in Lucy Worsley's house books, and it seems best suited to people who are researching their historical novels for realistic details.
