About this product

Product Information

Just as much as kings and queens, battles and empire, Britain's great themes have been the liberty of the individual, the rule of law, and the parliamentary democracy invented to protect them. Ever since Caractacus and Boudicca surprised the Romans with the bravery of their resistance, Britain has stood out as the home of freedom. From Thomas More to William Wilberforce, from Gladstone to Churchill, Britain's history is studded with heroic figures who have resisted tyranny in all its guises, whether it be the Stuart kings' belief in divine right, the institution of slavery, or the ambitions of Napoleon and Hitler.

eoeA work of history that gives a sense of who the six wives of Henry VII were without becoming bogged down in details demands great respect. . . .

And only someone of her caliber could tell history so well and make it real to readers in Britain, America, and elsewhere., Resurrecting King Arthur and retelling the gloriously ironic tale of King Alfred . . . Fraser stokes the embers of pride in a past from which the British themselves have become emotionally detached, and in which an American audience will find much that is compelling.

4 out of 5 stars

Good and worth a read. Not too heavy on battles or love life
To be fair I am only 1/4 through the book. It is what I was seeking, a concise description of the personality, issues, and lives of the kings, in order. I am parcelling the chapters out to not confuse myself, and because I want to read it for longer. It is said that if you feel as if you have lost a friend when a book ends, that it is a good book. I will miss this one when it ends, I think.
