Update as of 4/21/12

Here is an update as of 4/21/12:
(FYI: Henry VII passed away on 4/21/12 and Henry VIII succeeded as King.  Sites about Henry VII & Henry VIII are at the very bottom of this post.)

1) Reading "Winter King - Henry VII & The Dawn of Tudor England"


















Once I finish this book, I will write a review and post on this site  (I received a free copy of this book from the publisher, Simon & Schuster, to write a review).

2) Next post will be on 4/25.  I had a Question & Answer Format with Author, Rober Parry.  He is the author of the Novel, "The Virgin and the Crab".  Its THREE year anniversary falls on 4/25.


















3) Added the movie"The Duchess" (Non Tudor Related) & a documentary by UKTV, called "Kings & Queens of England", to the section above, Tudor Movies/Documentaries.


4) Henry VII passed away on 4/21/12 and Henry VIII succeeded as King.  Sites about Henry VII & Henry VIII are below, as well as pictures:

In 1537, King Henry VIII commissioned Hans Holbein the Younger to create a mural of the Tudor dynasty to commemorate the birth of his son and heir, Edward (this is a sketch & the other side is Elizabeth of York, Henry VII's wife & Jane Seymour, Henry VIII's 3rd wife).
