Pages : 734
Book Description
This classic volume in the renowned Oxford History of England series examines the birth of a nation-state from the death throes of the Middle Ages in North-West Europe. John D. Mackie describes the establishment of a stable monarchy by the very competent Henry VII, examines the means employed by him, and considers how far his monarchy can be described as "new." He also discusses the machinery by which the royal power was exercised and traces the effect of the concentration of lay and eccleciastical authority in the person of Wolsey, whose soaring ambition helped make possible the Caesaro-Papalism of Henry VIII.

Also offers general readers succinct accounts along with analysis and discussion of recent scholarship. Examines the events leading up to the 11th-century establishment of Norman kings, the 1205 signing of the Magna Carta, and the beginning of the Tudor dynasty in 1485.
