The Pilgrimage of Grace and the Politics of the 1530s
Hoyle, R. W. (Professor of Rural History, Professor of Rural History, University of Reading)
In 1536 Henry VIII faced rebellions in northern England. The Pilgrimage of Grace posed the greatest threat encountered by any Tudor monarch. The risings have traditionally been assumed to be in protest at Henry's dissolution of the monasteries, but in this lively and colourful history, R. W. Hoyle uncovers the full story behind the dramatic and tragic events of 1536-7.
