Description:

Audio Books : Misc. Educational : MP3/64Kbps : English Unabridged (20 hours) Read by Donada Peters The six-week New York Times bestselling history of the legendary six wives of Henry VIII - from an acclaimed biographer. "Admirably succeed(s) in bringing to life the six women who married England's ruler. . . ." - New York Times Book Review. From Publishers Weekly Fraser's scrupulously researched recuperative study of Henry VIII's six queens makes a major contribution to feminist scholarship. From Library Journal Fraser here attempts to provide a fuller view of the six women who unenviably danced around the maypole that was the corpulent King of England. Fraser, the distinguished author of many historical studies, including The Weaker Vessel, portrays in fascinating detail the women who sought to be included in and were sometimes destroyed by the power structure of the times. Inevitably, more time is spent on Catherine of Aragon (after all, Catherine and Henry were married 24 years, whereas all five of his other marriages only totaled a little over ten years), and although Fraser claims to have tried to avoid any bias, she betrays a lingering sympathy for Henry's first queen. One cannot help but speculate, as the author does, what history would have been like if Catherine had provided Henry with a male heir. Not only were Henry's wives prisoners of their biology, but also Henry himself. Fraser's readable style, empathy for her subjects, and piquant use of historical details and anecdotes make this a satisfying addition to the history shelves. Enjoy and Seed!!
