Description

Anne Boleyn: Henry VIII's Obsession tells the epic story of the most controversial and scandalous woman to sit on the throne of England. From her early days at Hever Castle in Kent, Anne's wit and poise won her numerous admirers at court, drawing the attention of King Henry.

Anne's determination to shape her own destiny led her to a secret engagement with Henry Percy, before eventually insisting on marriage with the king after a long and tempestuous relationship as his mistress. Their love affair was marked by both extreme passion and deadly consequences.

This biography explores Anne Boleyn's life, from her early days in Kent to her rise to prominence at court, and ultimately her tragic fall from favour.
