Jane Seymour: Henry VIII's True Love

The first ever biography of Jane Seymour, Henry VIIIâ€™s third wife, who died in childbirth giving the king what he craved most â€“ a son and heir.

First biography to show the real Jane Seymour; she may have been submissive and obedient in front of Henry, but her true personality was far more cutthroat.

Despite the huge interest in the wives of Henry VIII - most of his wives are the subject of at least two books - Jane has none.

Jane Seymour is often portrayed as meek and mild and as the most successful, but one of the least significant, of Henry VIIIâ€™s wives. The real Jane was a very different character, demure and submissive yet with a ruthless streak â€“ as Anne Boleyn was being tried for treason, Jane was choosing her wedding dress. From the lowliest origins of any of Henryâ€™s wives, her rise shows an ambition every bit as great as Anneâ€™s.

Elizabeth Norton tells the thrilling life of a country girl from rural Wiltshire who rose to the throne of England and became the ideal Tudor woman.
