73
74 by Keith Roberts</A> <BR>Eventually I will be at a loss
75
76 for superlatives when describing my favorite books.&nbsp; PAVANE is a
77
78 beautiful book, written by one of the masters of 1960s science
79
80 fiction.&nbsp; It is a work of alternative history, one of the first of that
81
82 genre and perhaps the best.&nbsp; It begins in 1588 with the assassination
83
84 of Queen Elizabeth I and the subsequent supremacy of the Catholic faith in
85
86 England.&nbsp; From there, PAVANE evolves into a truly entrancing book which
87 explores freedom, communication, religion, etc&nbsp; Like The Fifth Queen, it
88
89 has a superb ending.&nbsp; If you haven't read this, please please please
90
91 check it out.&nbsp; It's recently been reissued and it's simply
92
93 wonderful.&nbsp; Few books strike me as deeply imagined, most walk over
94
95 familiar ground - PAVANE is a true original. <BR>&nbsp; </font>

102
103 FIFTH QUEEN by Ford Madox Ford</A> <BR>I love this
104
105 book.&nbsp; Ford uses the life of Henry VIII's fifth queen to explore the culture of
106
107 fear, treachery, and paranoia which characterized the Tudor court.&nbsp;
108
109 Catherine battles Thomas Cromwell in an attempt to prevent further religious
110
111 and political change.&nbsp; The book is divided into three parts and
112
113 contains engrossing portraits of familiar Tudor figures; Princess Mary,
114
115 Henry VIII, Cromwell, Norfolk, Catherine herself - all are beautifully
116
117 brought to life.&nbsp; Ford spent years researching this
118
119 book but it is a work of fiction; liberties are taken, characterizations may
120 not be historically correct, etc&nbsp; I think it's one of the best works of historical
121
122 fiction ever written - and the ending is fantastic.&nbsp; As for the
123 'character' of Catherine, Ford creates an interesting / complex figure from
124 scant historical sources.<BR>&nbsp; </font>

131
132 CANDLEMASS ROAD by George MacDonald Fraser</A> <BR>Fraser
133
134 is justly famous as author of the Flashman novels, among the best (and
135
136 certainly the funniest) historical fiction ever.&nbsp; But his talent is
137
138 more expansive than even Flashman would suggest.&nbsp; Everything he writes
139
140 turns to gold, at least in my opinion (even the flawed 'Pyrates' had great
141 moments.)&nbsp; Long fascinated by the history
142
143 of his native Scotland, in THE CANDLEMASS ROAD, Fraser recounts the story of
144
145 Lady Margaret Dacre and her perilous life along the English-Scottish
146
147 border during Elizabeth I's reign.&nbsp; The writing is superb; I expect nothing less from
148
149 Fraser.&nbsp; My one quibble is that the book is so short - I didn't want it

151 to end. <BR>&nbsp; </font>

157 STEEL BONNETS by George MacDonald Fraser</A> <BR>This work

159 of history is concerned with the outlaws and Border lords (reivers) who

161 fought along the English and Scottish frontier for several hundred
162
163 years.&nbsp; It's a wonderful work of history and makes me wish more great

193 Garrett <BR>It's not enough for me that a book is set in the 16th century.&nbsp; I want
194 it to be a great book which just happens to be set in the 16th century.&nbsp; Every time I slumber
195
196 or groan my way through the latest awful Tudor fiction full of heaving
197
198 bosoms and Egads!-worthy dialogue, I think fondly of Fraser and
199 Ford and this trilogy by George Garrett.... <br>Garrett's books should be read by
200 anyone with an interest in 16th century England.&nbsp; But they aren't read
201 by many, which I think is very sad - even more so when one considers the
202 popularity of terrible Tudor fiction.&nbsp; Of this trilogy, my favorite is
203 DEATH OF THE
204
205 FOX; Garrett brings the complex and fascinating Walter Raleigh to
206
207 life.&nbsp; But all three works are wonderful.&nbsp;&nbsp; ENTERED FROM THE SUN

220
221 though THE SUCCESSION has less to do with Elizabeth and James than the title

235 TUDOR: PORTRAIT OF A QUEEN</A> <BR>by Lacey Baldwin Smith
236
237 <BR>I've been raving about LB Smith since I started this
238
239 website.&nbsp; When visitors write and ask what is essential to read, I
240
241 point them to Smith's work.&nbsp; Unfortunately, two of the above works are
242
243 out of print.&nbsp; Yeah, I know - there's plenty of room for junk on
244
245 bookshelves but apparently no room for great works of history.&nbsp; Well,
246
247 go to Amazon.com or Barnes &amp; Noble.com and order them used.&nbsp; Smith's bio of Catherine Howard
248
249 is the only one ever written which concerns Henry VIII's ill-fated 'Rose
250
251 Without a Thorn'.&nbsp; He collects the scant historical knowledge of her
252
253 life and creates a compelling portrait of a misguided girl and her ambitious
254
255 family (the sprawling Norfolk clan).&nbsp; His bio of Henry VIII is simply
256
257 the best available on the second Tudor king.&nbsp; It has great
258
259 psychological insight and a sharp sense of humor.&nbsp; After a lifetime of
260
261 studying Henry, Smith is still fascinated by the king and determined to
262
263 understand his contradictory character.&nbsp; But read it only after reading
264
265 a general bio of Henry VIII; the author assumes some knowledge of the Tudor
266
267 court and its cast of characters.&nbsp; And his brief bio of Elizabeth Tudor
268
269 is a persuasive sketch of England's most fascinating and accomplished queen.&nbsp; <BR> <BR>&nbsp;

274 CRANMER by Diarmaid MacCulloch</a><br>
275 This is the definitive
276 biography of the father of English Protestantism.&nbsp; Cranmer was the
277 archbishop of Canterbury from 1533 to 1556; he presided over the Reformation
278 and the creation of the Anglican Book of Common Prayer.&nbsp; He was burnt
279 at the stake as a heretic during the reign of Mary I.&nbsp; MacCulloch's
280 book is dense, literally and figuratively.&nbsp; But it is also a
281 beautifully written study of one of the most compelling lives of the 16th
282 century.&nbsp; Cranmer was a conflicted and courageous man, and deserved
283 such a monumental biography.&nbsp; MacCulloch uses sources never mentioned
284 in previous studies; he charts the evolution of Protestantism with an eye
285 for the telling detail.&nbsp; Personally, I am always surprised by the
286 number of Tudor enthusiasts who are familiar with the story of Thomas More
287 but have only a vague idea of Cranmer's life.&nbsp; Perhaps it's the
288 enduring popularity of A Man for All Seasons?&nbsp; I don't know.&nbsp; But

293 PRINCE AND THE PAUPER by Mark Twain</a> <BR>This is
294
295 Twain's famous tale of Prince Edward, only son of King Henry VIII, and Tom

297 Canty, a pauper boy who is his physical twin.&nbsp; Twain wrote my favorite
298
299 book of all time (Huckleberry Finn) so I am biased, but this is still a
300
301 great book.&nbsp; The story is very entertaining and fun and there are
302
303 moments of genuine suspense and pathos.&nbsp; Some people classify this book
304
305 as children's literature; in fact, they say that about lots of Twain's

328 AND THE PRINCE OF SPAIN</A> <BR>by Margaret Irwin <BR>Elizabeth Tudor has brought out the best in many writers, but
329
330 perhaps none more so than Margaret Irwin.&nbsp; This trilogy has recently
331
332 been reissued, thus earning the publisher my enduring gratitude.&nbsp; She
333
334 creates a vivid portrait of Elizabeth's entire life and there is the usual

353
354 AND ESSEX: A TRAGIC HISTORY</A> by Lytton Strachey <BR>This is one of my favorite books about Queen Elizabeth I.&nbsp; Strachey
355
356 always writes like a dream, with style and wit, and in this work he explores
357
358 the complex relationship between the Virgin Queen and the infamous earl of
359
360 Essex.&nbsp; Essex was the great favorite of Elizabeth's later years, but he
361
362 rebelled against the queen (his petulance was exceeded only by his
363
364 ingratitude.)&nbsp; Like Strachey's equally good <A

367
368 Victorians</A>, this biographical study is primarily psychological.&nbsp;
369
370 Strachey wants to know why Elizabeth and Essex acted as they did - their
371
372 motivations, desires, flaws....&nbsp; There is much room for disagreement
373
374 and often his analysis of Elizabeth's personality makes one want to analyze
375
376 Strachey himself, but this is still a great book.&nbsp; It brings Elizabeth
377
378 and her court to life and it pulls you deep into the story of the queen and
379
380 Essex.&nbsp; It also discusses the always intriguing Sir Francis
381
382 Bacon.&nbsp; What a fascinating bit of history! <BR>And
383
384 once again, let me emphasize the beautiful writing.&nbsp; Style counts with
385
386 me.&nbsp; If I want a dry, boring recitation of facts, then I can pick up an
387
388 encyclopedia or, sadly, most modern histories/biographies.&nbsp; It's like
389
390 that famous Mark Twain quote - 'The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter; it's the
391
392 difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.'&nbsp;
393
394 Exactly.&nbsp; All of the books I've listed here are full of the right words.&nbsp; Anyone can tell you that Elizabeth Tudor was born
395
396 in 1533 and her mother was executed in 1536 and blah blah blah.&nbsp; It's
397
398 easy enough.&nbsp; But can the writer create a compelling story worthy of
399
400 their subject?&nbsp; Can they bring history to life?&nbsp; I hate picking up
401
402 books which are full of facts but written like - oh, they're written in a&nbsp;
403
404 perfectly acceptable manner.&nbsp; But who wants perfectly acceptable things
405
406 all the time?&nbsp; You want a gripping, fun, fascinating book.<BR>&nbsp;

478
479 never met its subject (I always finish biographies of Bluff King Hal in that
480
481 mood), but sometimes it's different.&nbsp; Huizinga brings Erasmus and his
482 times to compelling life.&nbsp; The book includes numerous letters and
483 illustrations, and these are especially valuable since Erasmus corresponded
484 with many 16th century luminaries.</font><P align="left">
485<br> <font color="#0000FF">THE ROYAL PALACES OF TUDOR ENGLAND</font> and other works by Simon Thurley<br>I<font face="Times New Roman">
486enjoy all of Thurley's work - his most recent is a comprehensive study of
487Hampton Court - but this is easily the best study of Tudor royal architecture
488ever.&nbsp; It is beautifully illustrated and includes floor plans of various
489palaces.&nbsp; It also has a brief glossary.&nbsp; This book isn't simply
490indispensable, - it's also well-written and entertaining.&nbsp; There are lots
491of quirky facts interspersed throughout, and it does a wonderful job of
492explaining various aspects of the royal household.&nbsp; It's expensive, yes,
493but worth it.&nbsp; And it will make you read most Tudor fiction with a
494jaundiced eye.<BR>&nbsp;
