Mary Boleyn: A Life of Scandal and Misunderstanding The reputation of Mary Boleyn has long been marred by scandal and myth. Her affair with Henry VIII is said to have led to the annulment of his marriage to Anne, and she is rumored to have borne a child in secret. In this first full-length biography, Alison Weir sets out to dispel much of the mythology surrounding her subject's notorious life. Through extensive research, Weir reveals a more nuanced portrait of Mary Boleyn, one of the most misunderstood figures of the Tudor age.
