(This 1955 work is the classic history of the development ...)
This 1955 work is the classic history of the development of modern diplomacy in Renaissance Europe. Sometime after the year 1400, the diplomatic traditions of civilized cultures-which have existed as far back as the records of human history extend-took a sharp turn that was the result of new power relations in the newly modern world. Mattingly believed these could be illustrative of how nations and traditions change...and that we might apply those lessons to our own rapidly changing global culture. Discover: the legal framework of Medieval diplomacy diplomatic practices in the 15th century the Italian beginnings of modern diplomacy precedents for resident embassies the dynastic power relations of European nations in the 16th century French diplomacy and the breaking-up of Christendom the Habsburg system early modern diplomacy and more. American scholar of European history GARRETT MATTINGLY (1900-1962) is also the author of Catherine of Aragon (1941) and the bestselling The Armada (1959), for which he won a Pulitzer Prize.

(For 24 years she was the wife of Henry VIII. England love...)
For 24 years she was the wife of Henry VIII. England loved her; Henry loved, respected, and finally feared her. Wolsey hated her. Twice she saved England, once from invasion, once from Civil War. Here is one of those rare books, brilliantly readable and buttressed by scholarship and research, which make you see history through new eyes.
