Six Queens

When Henry Comes Marching Home


Listen Later

What happened during the respective regencies of Katharine of Aragon and Katherine Parr? How did their times as Queens Regent shape Tudor history? And how did they embrace the traditionally masculine world of politics and war?   

In a quick break from talking about the English Reformation, Kate and Cally are turning their attention to war: specifically, the two French campaigns of Henry VIII's reign, when he left his wives in charge of England.   

Listeners should be aware that this episode contains a brief mention of violence and human remains that some may find disturbing.
