The Early Tudors: Henry VII and Henry VIII
Charles Edward Moberly
Read by Pamela Nagami
Following the chaos of the Wars of the Roses, the reigns of Henry VII and VIII were autocratic and centralized to an unprecedented degree. This slim volume by the British historian and educator, Charles Moberly, provides many interesting details about the reigns of these two monarchs. But the author also offers a clear picture of the European context in which they acted: the Reformation struggle, the rivalry between the King Francis I and Emperor Charles V, the influence of the Popes, and the struggle for Italy. (Summary by Pamela Nagami, M.D.) (8 hr 41 min)

Enlightening book.
Karen Bromberg
Because I'm a history buff, I knew that I would like this book. [Especially because it has the Tutors history. The reader is excellent.
