The Tudor era unfolds against the waning glow of the Wars of the Roses. Henry VII rises from Bosworth Field, reins in the feudal lords, and refills an empty treasury. His heir Henry VIII—six marriages, a break with Rome, and the sweeping dissolution of the monasteries that gives birth to Anglicanism. “Bloody” Mary tries to restore Catholicism by force, while the “Virgin” Elizabeth I crushes the Invincible Armada, backs Drake’s privateers, and launches England’s first colonies in the New World.
You’ll also see the Kildare Rebellion and the fall of the Irish clans, the covert “Rough Wooing” of Scotland, the mysterious disappearance of Roanoke, the flowering of Shakespearean theatre, and the founding of the East India Company. In just one century, the Tudor dynasty lifts England from post-war ruin to the maritime and commercial super-powerhouse of the Renaissance.
