Book Description
======
The New York Times bestselling author of the Six Tudor Queens
series explores the private side of the legendary king Henry VIII
and his dramatic and brutal reign in this extraordinary
historical novel.
Having completed her Six Tudor Queens series of novels on the
wives of Henry VIII, extensively researched and written from each
queenΓÇÖs point of view, Alison Weir now gives Henry himself a
voice, telling the story of his remarkable thirty-eight-year
reign and his six marriages.
Young Henry began his rule as a magnificent and chivalrous
Renaissance prince who embodied every virtue. He had all the
qualities to make a triumph of his kingship, yet we remember only
the violence. Henry famously broke with the pope, founding the
Church of England and launching a
religious revolution that divided his kingdom. He beheaded two of
his wives and cast aside two others. He died a suspicious,
obese, disease-riddled tyrant, old before his time. His reign is
remembered as one of dangerous intrigue and bloodshedΓÇöand yet the
truth is far more complex.
The KingΓÇÖs Pleasure brings to life the idealistic monarch who
expanded Parliament, founded the Royal Navy, modernized medical
training, composed music and poetry, and patronized the arts. A
passionate man in search of true love, he was stymied by the
imperative to produce a male heir, as
much a victim of circumstance as his unhappy wives. Had fate been
kinder to him, the history of England would have been very
different.
Here is the story of the private man. To his contemporaries, he
was a great king, a legend in his own lifetime. And he left an
extraordinary legacyΓÇöa modern Britain.
