Book Synopsis Henry VII's New Men and the Making of Tudor England by : Steven J. Gunn
Book excerpt: Annotation This volume reconstructs the lives of Henry VII's new men - low-born ministers with legal, financial, political, and military skills who enforced the king's will as he sought to strengthen government after the Wars of the Roses, examining how they exercised power, gained wealth, and spent it to sustain their new-found status.
