This fascinating and occasionally salacious historical study delves
into the lives of six Tudor women celebrated for their reputed
wickedness. Collected here are illuminating accounts of Anne Boleyn
and Katherine Howard, the two consorts of Henry VIII who were
executed for adultery; Anne Seymour, duchess of Somerset, and
Lettice Dudley, countess of Essex and Leicester, two defamed
noblewomen; and Jane and Alice More, the two wives of Sir Thomas
More who were charged with contrariness and shrewishness. In the
process, author Retha M. Warnicke rescues these women from
historical misrepresentations and helps us to rediscover the
complex world of Tudor society.
