History of England From the Fall of Wolsey to the Death of Elizabeth, Volume 4 (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Viewing history as a grand drama, Froude emphasized great personalities and disdained the scientific approach in his historical writing.

This epic, twelve-volume narrative presents a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era.

The fourth volume begins with a discussion of Scotland and Ireland and their rivalries with one another and with England.

It closes with an analysis of the life and reign of Henry the Eighth.
