Hutchinson, Robert

Presents a comprehensive examination of the reign of King Henry VIII describing his tyranny, his six wives, his heirs, and the conspiracies, betrayals, and intrigue that made up his thirty-five years in power.

Combines photographs of the Twin Towers taken at different times of day and from many viewpoints with similar photographs taken after their destruction that highlight their absence.

Traces the rise of Henry VIII's advisor from an obscure brewer's son to one who encouraged the king's marriage to Anne Boleyn and the Protestant Reformation, and details his corrupt activities and violent execution.
