henry VIII AND HIS WIVES, Walter Jerrold

The keynote of the book is struck in the words of the old chronicle, "The truth is that he hath had a great many wives and with some of them has had ill luck as any other poor man; and I shall plainly tell you, from one to one, how the matters have passed."

MR. JERROLD has sought neither to whitewash the king nor to emphasize the stain on his character; he has succeeded in making of the traditional Bluebeard a very real person.

With illustrations in color and in black and white by Kitty Shannon
