Review Quotes

"This book is an exposé revealing for the first time, uncensored evidence that shows the truth about Anne Boleyn's life and the suppression and censorship of a powerful woman...So much passion has been poured into this book by Hayley Nolan in a need to rewrite some wrongs...If history is your thing, you'll be hooked. There's so much to sink your teeth into." --Fat Cats and Good Books

"Fluently written, and full of a lot of humour...This book was fully engaging, and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in this period of history. It's also very accessible, so regardless of your prior knowledge of the period, you will learn a lot from Nolan's work." -- Stacked Shelves

"The way we understand history affects the way we understand the world. Minimising and even romanticising domestic abuse through history sends harmful messages about what is acceptable and what is a serious crime. Women's Aid is raising awareness of this with Hayley Nolan, who is examining Henry VIII's harassment and murder of his wife Anne Boleyn, and challenging the way that her story has been told in history." --Adina Claire, acting co-Chief Executive of Women's Aid
