MAKING OF THE TUDOR DYNASTY

The peculiar origins of the Tudor family, and the improbable saga of its rise, fall and recovery have been largely overlooked. Based on published and manuscript sources from Britain and France, this book provides a coherent and authoritative account of the ancestors of the Tudor royal family from their beginnings in North Wales at the start of the thirteenth century, through royal English and French connections in the fifteenth century, to Henry Tudor's victory at Bosworth Field in 1485.
