The Reign of Mary I - Robert Tittler - Bog

Until recently, the reign of Mary Tudor was generally seen as a `sterile interlude¿ in the Tudor century, with Mary herself dismissed as `Bloody Mary¿. Extensive research in the past several decades has overturned these assumptions in almost every respect. In this succinct and up-to-date introduction to Mary¿s reign, Tittler and Richards provide new insight into the circumstances of Mary¿s accession and go on to show that her reign was a lot more stable, and her regime much more competent and innovative, than once believed.
