A new look at Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn "Will certainly
make readers think again about what we really know about Henry
VIII's most controversial wife-and what we have merely become
accustomed to believe we know about her."-Paul Hammer, University
of Colorado at Boulder In this groundbreaking new biography, G. W.
Bernard offers a fresh portrait of one of England's most
captivating queens. Through a wide-ranging forensic examination of
sixteenth-century sources, Bernard reconsiders Boleyn's girlhood,
her experience at the French court, the nature of her relationship
with Henry, and the authenticity of her evangelical sympathies. He
depicts Anne Boleyn as a captivating, intelligent, and highly
sexual woman whose attractions Henry resisted for years until
marriage could ensure legitimacy for their offspring. He shows that
it was Henry, not Anne, who developed the ideas that led to the
break with Rome. And, most radically, he argues that the
allegations of adultery that led to Anne's execution in the Tower
could be close to the truth.
