Saga

Early modern England was a time of great transformation that ushered England out of the Middle Ages and into the modern era, but there’s likely a lot you don’t know about this period.

For instance, did you know that Henry VIII never actually got a divorce? Did you know that pirates, Shakespeare, and the witch trials all existed at the same time? Did you know that Ireland was technically the first English colony and that England beheaded its own king?

The early modern era in English history was a turbulent time. Over the course of the 16th and 17th centuries, England had to find its footing as it underwent a religious transformation, changes in government, and the start of a colonial empire. This audiobook will outline the major events, key people, and interesting tidbits about this time in English history, including:

• How the Tudors came to power • Why Henry VIII had so many wives • Social structure in early modern England • How Queen Mary earned the nickname “Bloody Mary” • What made the Glorious Revolution glorious • The reasons for colonization • Why an English king was executed for treason • Why Ireland and England don’t get along • What crimes were the most prominent • Who England was fighting with and why
