Nearly five hundred years after her violent death, Anne Boleyn, second wife to Henry VIII, remains one of the world's most fascinating, controversial, and tragic heroines. Now acclaimed historian and bestselling author Alison Weir has drawn on myriad sources from the Tudor era to give us the first book that examines, in unprecedented depth, the gripping, dark, and chilling story of Anne Boleyn's final days.The tempestuous love affair between Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn scandalized Christendom and altered forever the religious landscape of England. Anne's ascent from private gentlewoman to queen was astonishing, but equally compelling was her shockingly swift downfall. Charged with high treason and imprisoned in the Tower of London in May 1536, Anne met her terrible end all the while protesting her innocence. There remains, however, much mystery surrounding the queen's arrest and the events leading up to it: Were charges against her fabricated because she stood in the way of Henry VIII making a third marriage and siring an heir, or was she the victim of a more complex plot fueled by court politics and deadly rivalry?    The Lady in the Tower examines in engrossing detail the motives and intrigues of those who helped to seal the queen's fate. Weir unravels the tragic tale of Anne's fall, from her miscarriage of the son who would have saved her to the horrors of her incarceration and that final, dramatic scene on the scaffold. What emerges is an extraordinary portrayal of a woman of great courage whose enemies were bent on utterly destroying her, and who was tested to the extreme by the terrible plight in which she found herself.     Richly researched and utterly captivating, The Lady in the Tower presents the full array of evidence of Anne Boleyn's guilt—or innocence. Only in Alison Weir's capable hands can readers learn the truth about the fate of one of the most influential and important women in English history.BONUS: This edition contains a The Lady in the Tower discussion guide and an excerpt from Alison Weir's Mary Boleyn.

PDF The Lady in the Tower: The Fall of Anne Boleyn with FREE EASY Reading!

I have enjoyed all of the books I've read by Alison Weir. She goes into a lot of detail and is academic in her writing, but I've read a few others who are so scholarly that the detail and meanings go over my head at times. I have had to go back and read and re-read passages again. Not so with Weir's "The Lady in the Tower:: The Fall of Anne Boleyn." This book covers the last months of Anne's life, the plot to end it and that sad end. A controversial point that is brought up early in the book is whether Henry VIII was the one who put the bug in Thomas Cromwell's ear to come up with a plan to do away with Queen Anne or whether it was Cromwell's own doing that plotted her downfall. Weir gives reason to the conclusion that Master Secretary Thomas Cromwell was the one behind the plot as the queen was a powerful influence and was at odds with Cromwell, and had failed to bear a live son to Henry. Henry's greatest wish was a son to be his heir. If Henry was behind the plot to get rid of Anne, I've often wondered why he was so shocked by the note he received at the May Day Joust and took off immediately, never to see Anne again. There are, as Weir points out, some things we will never know.This book is very well researched by Alison Weir and she uses a lot of quotes from contemporary sources to add to the interest and credibility of the book. I especially like to see the language and spelling of the day and signatures of people such as Anne herself. The book contains color plates which include a portrait of Henry's newest love who was waiting in the wings, Jane Seymour. I think Weir raises the bar on writing non-fiction and making it a hard-to-put-down book at the same time. Poetry is quoted from sources that are of one persuasion or another, Overall, this is an excellent book on Queen Anne Boleyn's last days and the people who were around her. I really enjoyed it.
