Charismatic, insatiable and cruel, Henry VIII was,
as John Guy shows, a king who became mesmerized
by his own legend — and in the process destroyed
and remade England.
Said to be a ‘pillager of the commonwealth’, this
most instantly recognizable of kings remains a figure
of extreme contradictions: magnificent and vengeful; a
devout traditionalist who oversaw a cataclysmic rupture
with the church in Rome; a talented, towering figure who
nevertheless could not bear to meet people’s eyes when
he talked to them.
In this revealing new account, John Guy looks behind
the mask into Henry’s mind to explore how he understood
the world and his place in it — from his isolated upbringing
and the blazing glory of his accession to his desperate
quest for fame and an heir and the terrifying paranoia of
his last, agonising, 54-inch-waisted years. ^ |
