By providing the political framework essential to understanding both social and historical developments, Bowle achieves a brilliant survey of this historic period. His narrative skill illuminates the personalities as well as the events, employing quotes from original documents ranging from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles to a love letter of Henry VIII.
