Monarchy, from the Tudors to the Windsors (3/8 people found this helpful)
David Starkey should stick to TV documentary portrayals of history, because without the TV behind him he is DULL DULL DULL. All he has succeeded in doing - with this book - and I've read a few - is reducing the story of this explosive period to the dull chronology of a cost-effective and judiciously-crafted university lecture.
Any fool can do that. VERY disappointed. At £8.99 - frankly, 10 x what it is worth.
