This new biography illuminates the life of Henry VII himself, how
he ran his government, how his authority was maintained, and the
nature of the country over which he ruled since he first claimed
the throne in 1485.
Sean Cunningham explores how Henry's reign was vitally important
in stabilizing the English monarchy and providing the sound
financial and institutional basis for later developments in
government, and tackles key questions in the debate:
- Was Henry VII a conventional late medieval nobleman?
- How did his upbringing affect his later kingship?
- What was the nature of Henry's marriage to Elizabeth of
York?
- How and why did he become the main rival to Richard III
following the disappearance of Edward V and his brother in July
1483?
Up until now the details of Henry as a person and as a king, his
court and household, his subjects, and his country have remained
little known. This book remedies that lack, and brings to the
forefront the life and times of the very first Tudor king.
