History of England From the Fall of Wolsey to the Death of Elizabeth, Volume 3 (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) e-bog

Viewing history as a grand drama, Froude emphasized great personalities and disdained the scientific approach in his historical writing. This epic, twelve-volume narrative presents a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era. Volume three opens with a discussion of the Protextant reformation, and its effects both at home and abroad. Froude ends with a description of the character and administration of Thomas Cromwell, and his eventual fall in 1540.
