Hester W. Chapman presents a vivid and authoritative portrait of the boy king who ascended the English throne at just nine years old in 1547 and died before reaching his sixteenth birthday, yet whose reign saw the Protestant Reformation take firm root in England. Written with the narrative elegance of a seasoned historian, the account uncovers the political machinations of the powerful lords — particularly the Dukes of Somerset and Northumberland — who governed in Edward's name and shaped the course of a nation. Chapman illustrates how this intellectually gifted and deeply devout young king was as much a pawn of court politics as he was a ruler, making his story one of the most poignant and underexamined episodes in Tudor history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956127543515,"sku":"2026200011014-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/fdb7c547-6cab-484b-82ca-846d9ab9dee6.png?v=1783498098","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011014-secondhand-the-last-tudor-king-a-study-of-edward-vi","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
