In this Brief History, Tudor historian and expert DerekWilson describes the dramatic changes that occurred to England, how the nation became Protestant, and why it still matters today.

Stimulating and authoritative.”
John Guy
Masterly. [Wilson] has a deep understanding of characters, reaching out across centuries.”
The Sunday Times
On previous titles:
Fast-paced biography . . . Wilson deftly chronicles Charlemagne's military exploits, political intrigues, and religious devotion.”
Publishers Weekly on Charlemagne
I cannot praise too highly Derek Wilson's prose style, which is both masterful and lively. He writes with great conviction and a breathtaking attention to the kind of personal detail that makes his books such compelling reading.”
Alison Weir on In the Lion's Court
The ambition of Wilson's plan lies in the fact that he does not offer us six separate studies . . . but presents one complex, rich narrative. . . . This plan is carried out with attractive energy and zest. . . . He has written a useful and stimulating book about [Britain's] most important dynasty.”
Antonia Fraser, Sunday Times (UK) on In the Lion's Court
A masterly study.”
Daily Telegraph (UK) on Rothschild
