Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Thomas Cromwell was the most powerful man in England during the Tudor dynasty. He was born in 1485, which was fitting since it was in that year that the Tudors came to power. His family were not originally from Putney, but from Norwell in Nottinghamshire. #2 The Cromwell family had owned a fulling mill at Putney for fifty years. Walter also owned a hostelry, an Anchor, and a brewery, along with two virgates of land. He was a successful local tradesman. #3 The city of London was defended by handsome walls, and within these stood a strongly defended castle on the banks of the river Thames. The King of England and his Queen sometimes had their residence there. #4 Franciscius was shocked by the Londoners he met, their wicked dispositions, and their contempt and neglect of their children. He especially disliked the streets that got wet with the slightest amount of water.

Sample Book Insights: #1 The trading, day trading, and investing of financial products are terms that are used to describe the buying and selling of electronic financial products. Day traders and traders use computers to buy and sell in the financial markets. #2 The markets are the group of financial trading people, products, and platforms. The market is the loose association of professional and personal traders and investors who carry out both short-term and long-term trades and investments in financial products such as stocks, foreign moneys, and commodities such as gold and oil. #3 Market makers are traders who make money by buying and selling all available stock. They are the first to buy and sell all orders coming through the exchange floor, and they earn a commission on each trade. #4 The world’s marketplaces help buyers and sellers determine the current price of what’s being traded. The prices are updated constantly, allowing traders to see what a trade is worth moment to moment. The difference between the buy and sell prices, called the bid/ask spread, is pocketed by the dealers and floor brokers as their profit for the service of being market makers.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When the Tudors came to power in 1485, it signaled the closing stages of more than thirty years of civil war between the Houses of York and Lancaster. Henry Tudor’s ambitions for the throne had been sparked by the death of Edward IV in 1483. #2 Henry Tudor, the king who overthrew Richard III in 1485, was a very private man who lacked the charisma of his Yorkist predecessors. He was also a very patient and sharp observer who was well trained by his uncle. #3 Henry VII inherited an impressive suite of palaces from his Yorkist predecessors. The easternmost was Greenwich, originally built as Bella Court by Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, in 1453. It was the favorite palace of Edward IV, who in 1480 built a new Great Hall complete with a magnificent hammer-beam roof. #4 The Tower of London, the Archbishop of York’s residence, was the most impressive royal residence in London. It was originally built by William the Conqueror after 1066. The London headquarters of the House of York during the Wars of the Roses, it was more suited for defence than for comfort.

An in-depth look at the British monarchy that’s “a superb synthesis of historical analysis, politics, and top-notch royal gossip” (Kirkus Reviews). Since William the Conqueror, duke of Normandy, crossed the English Channel in 1066 to defeat King Harold II and unite England’s various kingdoms, forty-one kings and queens have sat on Britain’s throne. “Shining examples of royal power and majesty alongside a rogue’s gallery of weak, lazy, or evil monarchs,” as Tracy Borman describes them in her sparkling chronicle, Crown & Sceptre. Ironically, during very few of these 955 years has the throne’s occupant been unambiguously English—whether Norman French, the Welsh-born Tudors, the Scottish Stuarts, and the Hanoverians and their German successors to the present day. Acknowledging the intrinsic fascination with British royalty, Borman lifts the veil to reveal the remarkable characters and personalities who have ruled and, since the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660, more ceremonially reigned. It is a crucial distinction explaining the staying power of the monarchy as the royal family has evolved and adapted to the needs and opinions of its people, avoiding the storms of rebellion that brought many of Europe’s royals to an abrupt end. Richard II; Henry VIII; Elizabeth I; George III; Victoria; Elizabeth II: their names evoke eras and the dramatic events Borman recounts. She is equally attuned to the fabric of monarchy: royal palaces; the way monarchs have been portrayed in art, on coins, in the media; the ceremony and pageantry surrounding the crown. Elizabeth II is already one of the longest reigning monarchs in history. Crown & Sceptre is a fitting tribute to her remarkable longevity and that of the magnificent institution she represents. “Crown & Sceptre brings us in short, vivid chapters from William the Conqueror to Elizabeth herself, much of it constituting a dark record of bumping off adversaries, rivals and spouses, confiscating vast estates and military invasions…. [A] lucid, character-rich book.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune “Borman’s deep understanding of English royalty shines.” —Chris Schluep, Amazon Editors’ Picks, The Best History Books of February 2022

'The Best Sculptor' is how Jan II Borman is described in a document dating from 1513. Ever since, Borman the man and his oeuvre are shrouded in mist. This late-medieval sculptor managed a busy workshop in Brussels, with commissions pouring in from religious institutions as well as from the bourgeoisie and princely rulers. He trained his sons Jan III and Passchier to become master sculptors after his own example and to have at least as shrewd a head for business as he himself. Borman was a virtuoso, a master but above all an innovator, who influenced many other sculptors. His iconic works are kept in the world?s greatest museums and churches. The book gathers essays by leading academics and presents a summary catalogue of all works attributed to the Borman family.

'An outstanding work of historical artistry, a brilliantly woven and pacy story of the men who surrounded, influenced and sometimes plagued Henry VIII.' Alison Weir Henry VIII is well known for his tumultuous relationships with women, and he is often defined by his many marriages. But what do we see if we take a different look? When we see Henry through the men in his life, a new perspective on this famous king emerges. Henry's relationships with the men who surrounded him reveal much about his beliefs, behaviour and character. They show him to be capable of fierce, but seldom abiding loyalty; of raising men only to destroy them later. He loved to be attended and entertained by boisterous young men who shared his passion for sport, but at other times he was more diverted by men of intellect, culture and wit. Often trusting and easily led by his male attendants and advisers during the early years of his reign, he matured into a profoundly suspicious and paranoid king whose favour could be suddenly withdrawn, as many of his later servants found to their cost. His cruelty and ruthlessness would become ever more apparent as his reign progressed, but the tenderness that he displayed towards those he trusted proves that he was never the one-dimensional monster that he is often portrayed as. In this fascinating and often surprising new biography, Tracy Borman reveals Henry's personality in all its multi-faceted, contradictory glory.
