DescriptionThis fascinating book studies the life and times of Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon, Henry VIIIs dearest sister and his closest companion. Charles rose from being Henrys childhood friend to becoming the Duke of Suffolk; a consummate courtier and diplomat. Mary was always royalty. At first married to the King of France, Mary quickly wed Charles after Louis XIIs death in 1515, against her brothers wishes. Their actions could have been construed as treason yet Henry chose to spare their lives. They returned to court and despite their ongoing disagreements throughout the years, especially over the kings marriage to Anne Boleyn, the Tudor Brandons remained Henrys most loyal subjects and perhaps more importantly, his beloved family.About the AuthorSarah-Beth Watkins works in publishing and has a BA in Social Policy.
