You've read the history and you already know the headlines: Henry VIII, the six wives, Elizabeth the Virgin Queen, the beheadings, the betrayals. But what was it actually like to live there?
In Jude's Tudor Survival Guide, I'll show you. This practical (and occasionally alarming) guide takes you beyond kings and queens and into the reality of everyday life in 16th-century England.
If you suddenly found yourself waking up in Tudor times, would you survive the first day?
You won't ever fit in completely. But you might just survive.
From filthy streets and surprising layers of clothing to rigid hierarchies and ever-present danger, this book shows you the Tudor world as it was actually lived: messy, noisy, uncomfortable and at times ingenious. Written in a clear, engaging style with a touch of dry humour, this companion to Jude's Slice: The Tudors brings history to life in a way that's both informative and entertaining.
