The hotly anticipated book from 'one of the all-time pop-culture greats' (New York magazine) that chronicles her shocking life and unyielding determination to not only survive but achieve her dreams.
A fascinating debut biography of Jane Boleyn, the lady-in-waiting who witnessed and survived Henry VIII’s perilous reign, until she too became a victim. In a life of extraordinary drama, Jane Boleyn was catapulted from the obscurity of the English countryside to the forefront of Henry VIII’s spectacular court, as lady-in-waiting to not just one, but five of Henry’s wives. Always at the centre of court life and intrigue, Jane attended the parties, the masque balls, and the jousts, and participated in the royal births, the weddings, the funerals, and the personal drama that swirled around the king, his wives, and their courtiers. As Henry’s wives rose and then fell, taking so many down with them, Jane stayed on. Her story gives readers an amazing, ongoing view of the personal toll that Henry’s long and ruthlessly violent reign took on the people closest to him, and positions her as a survivor — that is, until she herself became the subject of the king’s rage. History has not always been kind to the “Infamous Lady Rochford,” but in this fascinating biography, Julia Fox goes back to the original documents to rehabilitate Jane as a modern woman forced by brutal circumstances to fend for herself in a privileged but vicious world.
For centuries, little beyond rumor and scandal has been associated with "the infamous Lady Rochford" and sister-in-law of the doomed Anne Boleyn. Historian Fox sets the record straight and restores dignity to this much-maligned figure whose life and reputation were taken from her.
Focusing on the historical figure of Lady Rochford, the book aims to unravel the misconceptions surrounding her life, particularly her connection to Anne Boleyn. Through meticulous research, the author seeks to rehabilitate her reputation and highlight the complexities of her character, challenging the long-held rumors and scandals that have overshadowed her legacy. This work provides a fresh perspective on a woman often viewed through the lens of tragedy and intrigue in Tudor history.
