      abstract = {This book is about one of the most powerful and  influential dynasties in English history, a dynasty of five  monarchs who ruled their domain for over a century. The  Tudors were concerned with building a government that would  endure, hence their constant concern with succession, an  anxiety which lasted throughout the century. Although all  Tudor monarchs believed that their authority derived from  God, they had different ways of expressing that conviction,  and above all they believed in ruling with consent and  advice. For this reason they built partnerships, not with  the old nobility as their predecessors had done, but with  the wider community of the gentry, and above all with  parliament. These partnerships with the church and state  lasted for centuries and still influence British politics  today.},
