Author: Tracy Borman
Narrator: Julian Elfer

Thomas Cromwell has long been reviled as a Machiavellian schemer who stopped at nothing in his quest for power.

But here Tracy Borman reveals a different side of one of the most notorious figures in history: that of a caring husband and father, a fiercely loyal servant and friend, and a revolutionary who helped make medieval England into a modern state. Born in the mid-1480s to a lowly blacksmith, Cromwell left home at 18 to make his fortune abroad.
