Henry VII's New Men and the Making of Tudor England

About this book

This volume, based on extensive archival research, presents a kaleidoscopic portrait of the king's new men. It analyses the offices and relationships through which they exercised power and the ways they gained their wealth and spent it to sustain their new-found status. It establishes their importance in the operation of Henry's government and, as their careers continued under his son, in the making of Tudor England.
