About a decade ago I read One Summer, a Bill Bryson book that chronicled America in the summer of 1927. It was an amazing book (as all Bill Bryson books are) and I immediately wanted to do something similar with my podcast (which was just a Baby Podcast way back then). It took me a while to get around to it, but here we are. I chose 1527 because it’s 400 years before Bill Bryson’s book, and also it was the first year of Henry’s Great Matter, so there was a lot to chew on.
Not Tudor, but if you’d like to read the Bill Bryson book I’m referring to (you should) you can grab it here on Amazon.
Amy License’s new biography on Anne Boleyn has a lot of the detail of the Great Matter timeline.
Other episodes I did on the relationship with France:
