Henry VIII ruled England from 1509 to 1547. As a young man, he was fond of sports activities and hunting and was said to be uncommonly handsome. Located more than six foot extra tall, he loomed large in the lives and minds of his subjects as he navigated his country through the difficult diplomatic and military services risks of the 16th century. A guy of enormous appetites, Henry conducted affairs with a lot of women, committed six, and performed two. His infatuation with Anne Boleyn set in place a string of incidents that reshaped the chapel in England and eroded the dominance of Rome. But the popular image of Henry as a crude tyrant, dispatching courtiers, enemies, and wives with gusto, obscures a more nuanced and fascinating figure. He was a true Renaissance king who presided over one of Europe's very best courts and nudged American civilization onto a new course. Here, from Abigail Archer, writer of the New York Times best retailer Elizabeth I, is the storyline of Henry VIII.
