    Another excellent biography by Ms. Borman
  

*by T***3 on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2017*

4 and 1 / 2 starsThis is a very good book about the life and times of Thomas Cromwell. It chronicles the period of time from his birth through his death. Contrary to historical opinion, Thomas Cromwell was not wholly bad, but had many good qualities as well. He was generous, kind and funny to his friends. He loved his family and was caring and very loyal to his friends. He was pious and abstemious and did not buy into the fanciful clothes or possessions of the day. While the public part of his house was decorated and very nice, his private quarters were ordinary.  But he was also ambitious, driven and could be ruthless. This was especially true where matters of dissolving the monasteries and religious houses were concerned.Cromwell was both brilliant and determined to achieve his aims. Those were ones of making Henry VIII the richest king in all the land and achieving prominence at court. He was a very astute lawyer, accountant and moneylender. He also had a rather cruel side, especially when dealing with the dissolution of the monasteries and abbeys. He rose in the eyes of Henry and his court very quickly. He brought about the divorce from Queen Catherine and engineered both Anne Boleyn’s rise and her downfall. During his tenure in office, Cromwell created the first bureaucratic state. This made the country run far more efficiently than ever before. England had become a modern state.The book outlines in detail the power behind the scenes of the English throne. His relationship with Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, his relationship with King Henry VIII, Queen Catherine, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves and their friends and relatives and various nobles and courtiers are discussed in depth and with clear detail. The book is written linearly and in easy (with the exception of the olde English quotations), English. It is an easy and enjoyable read.This is not my first Tracy Borman book, and I was just as pleased with the level of competence and depth of scholarship with which she approached her subject.

    Interesting man
  

*by B***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2018*

This was a good biography although it dragged in places.  Cromwell is a man of contradictions and reading Hilary Mantel’s novels about him led me to this,  In comparison, this is obviously not a novel, and it is hard to get a real grasp of who he was because so many of his actions seemed to negate others.  Poor boy made good, hard worker, a formidable enemy but generous to many, intelligent but apparently unable to see where his own trap laid.  Henry VIII was a hard boss, probably even a worse boss than he was a husband, and that’s saying something.

    If You Enjoy Novels About the Tudors, Treat Yourself to This Biography of a Most Misunderstood Man
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021*

Sometimes I think I could read nothing but historical fiction and nonfiction about the Tudors and never get bored. This extraordinary biography of Thomas Cromwell written by premier British historian Tracy Borman is one of those books.As King Henry VIII's most trusted advisor—until he suddenly wasn't and lost his head for it—Cromwell figures heavily in any book or story about the Tudors. But in this one, he is the primary focus and everyone else, including the king and his many wives, are secondary.Beginning with his low-born childhood, of which very little is actually known, and continuing to his gruesome death, this well-researched biography is a fascinating scholarly study of man who was loving and caring to his extended family, as well as exceedingly kind and generous to those in need, especially widows and orphans, but who is best known as a master political manipulator who could be ruthless, heartless, cruel, and even murderous if it served his ends.If you enjoy novels about the Tudors, do treat yourself to this fact-filled biography of one of history's most misunderstood men.
