Original titleThe Reign of Mary Tudor: Politics, Government & Religion in England, 1553-58
The England of Mary's reign has suffered, until recently, almost total neglect. In this extraordinarily readable study four main themes are emphasized: Court, Council and administration; the Spanish marriage, Philip's role as King, and England's part in Imperial policy; government finance; and the religious reaction, including the role of Pole as legate and Philip's quarrel with the papacy.
