|summary= Mary Tudor's relationship with Henry VIII, his 'pearl of the world', was an important and often fraught one. This excellent biography looks in detail at the relationship between both, concluding that in spite of differences between them caused by the annulment of her parents' marriage, it ended harmoniously. The author paints a vivid picture of the Tudor court and of the early life of the woman long reviled as 'Bloody Mary'. Mention must also be made of the first-class timeline, genealogical table and appendices.
