Book Description
Paul Thomas charts the development of the modern British state in the Tudor century. Drawing on recent research, he examines the extent to which the Tudor government established lasting order, from its powerbase in London, throughout the British Isles. The book explores the themes of authority and disorder within the context of every level of society: the familiy, church, parish, law courts, nobility and the Tudor monarchy itself.
