The shocking and extraordinary story of the most conniving, manipulative Tudor family you've never heard of—the dashing and daring House of Dudley.
Each Tudor monarch made their name with a Dudley by their side—or by crushing one beneath their feet.
The Dudleys thrived at the court of Henry VII but were sacrificed to the popularity of Henry VIII. Rising to prominence in the reign of Edward VI, the Dudleys lost it all by advancing Jane Grey to the throne over Mary I. That was until the reign of Elizabeth I, when the family was once again at the center of power and would do anything to remain there . . .
With three generations of felled favorites, what was it that caused this family to keep rising so high and falling so low?
Here, for the first time, is the story of England's Borgias, a noble house competing in a murderous game for the English throne. Witness cunning, adultery, and sheer audacity from history's most brilliant, bold, and deceitful family.
Welcome to the House of Dudley.

I had heard of Robert Dudley as a suitor to QE1, but I was completely ignorant of the Dudley dynasty that rose and sometimes stumbled with the Tudors.
A fascinating history from the point of view of a family who were closely intertwined with the Tudors.
A good find

Just as the “King James Bible” was rewritten, edited and changed, as MANY of the different histories of many empires, biographies and the TRUE FACTS, everyone knows that history is always “written” by the winners..
I’ve done massive reading and research on European history, especially England and France and particularly during the Tudor era and before but found MANY discrepancies in this book and my knowledge..
First… Frances Brandon(daughter of the Duke of Suffolk Charles Brandon and his wife Mary Tudor(Queen of Spain and youngest sister to Henry VIII, married Henry Grey and they DID have 3 daughters however their names were Jane, Catherine and Mary(not another Catherine!)..
Also tue timelines on individuals in The New History… do NOT add up!
Not with ages of the characters involved but also times during their lifetimes with certain events..
Either inadequate research was done, or copied from fictional novels, OR this truly is a “New” history of the Dudley Family..
The story and narration is excellent but imo MAJOR FACTS, timelines and ages of characters and events are a work of fiction..
Worth the listen to and time but like watching lying MSM, don’t believe everything you read!!
