Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Portraits of the Tudor Dynasty and the Reformation, Vol. 3 It was originally intended that this work should be brought to a close in three volumes; but such a concourse of characters, and so many important events occurred in England and other countries, during the Tudor dynasty, that it appeared to me impossible to bring the events of many years - or a portion of them - into the space intended for the results of my inquiries. I have been compelled, therefore, to extend the work to four volumes, and even then to use more brevity than the importance of the various incidents might seem to permit. It has been contended by some Reviewers, that "I have concerned myself too much with the statements of modern writers." But, I beg respectfully to reply, that the great object of my work is to remove the false impressions made upon the English reader by sectarian and party writers, remote and more recent. The second volume of this work has been condemned by some journals, for no other reason than that of placing before the world an honest record of the deeds of the public men of the reigns of Henry VIII., Edward VI., Queen Mary, and Elizabeth.
