Was Sir Thomas More a religious hero or a religious zealot? Was Henry VIII a weak buffoon or a ruthless tyrant? Was the dissolution of the English monasteries an act of destruction or a means of reform? Was the English fleet that engaged the Spanish Armada brilliantly victorious or amazingly lucky? These and other Tudor myths and misperceptions will be discussed and clarified in the 10 chapters of this volume, offering high school students, college undergraduates, and other readers fascinated by Tudor history accurate fact-based insights into the period and its people.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eJohn A.
