Description

Thomas Cromwell: The Untold Story of Henry VIII's Most Faithful Servant A major new biography that sets the record straight on one of history's most fascinating figures. Tracy Borman's masterful account of Thomas Cromwell's life and legacy reveals a complex and multifaceted individual, far removed from the Machiavellian schemer of popular legend. Born a lowly tavern keeper's son, Cromwell rose swiftly through the ranks to become one of the most powerful figures in Tudor history. He played a pivotal role in shaping England's break with the Roman Catholic Church and the dissolution of the monasteries, and his influence extended far beyond his official duties. With fresh research and new insights into Cromwell's family life, his household, and his close relationships, Borman tells the true story of a man who was both ruthless in his pursuit of power and devoted to his loved ones.
