17th May 2012 – Wicked Women of Tudor England: Queens, Aristocrats, Commoners (Queenship and Power) by Retha M Warnicke (paperback)

‘This book delves into the lives of six Tudor women celebrated for their reputed ‘wickedness’— Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard, the two consorts of Henry VIII who were executed for adultery; Anne Seymour, duchess of Somerset, and Lettice Dudley, countess of Essex and Leicester, two defamed noblewomen; and Jane and Alice More, the two wives of Sir Thomas More who were charged with contrariness and shrewishness. In the process, author Retha Warnicke rescues these women from historical misrepresentations and helps us rediscover the complex world of Tudor society.’
