"In the popular imagination the unfortunate consorts of Henry VIII survive as feminine stereotypes: the Betrayed Wife, the Temptress, the Good Woman, the Ugly Sister,the Bad Girl and the Mother Figure. Now one of our leading historians restores these women to human dimensions while unraveling the web of forces that raised them to the throne and sometimes brought them to the headsman's block."
