520 _aSummary: The House of Tudor produced a scant five sovereigns, who ruled England for little more than a century, yet no other dynasty has so impressed its personality on the English-speaking peoples of the world. This book examines the romantic origins of this astonishing family and tells the personal stories of the five monarchs who ruled under its banner, and also something of the less known branches of the tree
