Tudor England

Click on the buttons to find out what was what in Tudor England.

There's a timeline, to show you what happened when, and where The Falconer's Quarry fits in.

 

Then there are some famous Tudors, a couple of Tudor recipes for you to try, a bit more information about the sinking of the Mary Rose - which happens off-stage in the book - and some useful links to other websites about the Tudors.
