The Tudors is an intimate; delicious; and daring drama revealing the early years of Henry VIII; an idealistic; lustful tyrant torn between bedding wives and mistresses and conquering Europe. This is not the story of the old; fat Henry youve read about in history books. At eighteen; the throne and the entire world became his. Young; sexy; and the most powerful man of his time; the king was known for his good looks and athletic prowess. He was so arrogant that he despised dealing with the consequences of his actions. King Henry executed people with little excuse; and single-handedly tore apart the Roman Catholic Church; the most powerful institution in medieval Europe. Passionate; vibrant; and scandalous; he forever altered the course of history. The Tudors; a Showtime Original Series starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers; brings to life Henrys tumultuous early years in exquisite fashion. THE BOOK ALSO INCLUDES a foreward by Michael Hirst; creator and executive producer; eight pages of lush; full-color photos; detailed essays about the Tudor era and dynasty Tune into The Tudors on Showtime -- Sundays at 10pm starting April 1st

Because of using magazine and newspaper articles for interviews. it seems a little sanitized. You cant help but to like the Fab 4. Seems like pretty good people. Consider the industry. and negativity of the times. the Beatles were good role models for kids. I realize thats my opinion that others may not agree.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
