OverviewAn accessible, heavily illustrated introduction to the life of Anne Boleyn. Alluring but not beautiful, Anne Boleyn's wit and poise won her numerous admirers at the English court, and caught the roving eye of King Henry VIII. Anne was determined to shape her own destiny, first through a secret engagement to Henry Percy, the heir of the Earl of Northumberland, and later through her insistence on marriage with the king, after a long and tempestuous relationship as his mistress. Their love affair was as extreme as it was deadly, and her fall from grace was total. The book is also the ideal guide to accompany a trip to the heritage sites associated with Anne Boleyn's life: HEVER CASTLE, TOWER OF LONDON, WESTMINSTER ABBEY, HAMPTON COURT PALACE, BLICKLING HALL, and WINDSOR CASTLE.
