Person of the Month

The period 1485-1603 is rich in fascinating personalities from all walks of life – from kings to sailors, politicians to poets. Each month we will run a feature on one person, bringing together a life-story, information about associated places, book reviews and, sometimes, guest articles.

If you would like us to feature someone in particular, let us know at editor@tudortimes.co.uk
