The story of the ill-fated favourite sister of Henry VIII who, like so many royals of the time, was traded as a commodity to secure the power of her country. Princess Mary Tudor was married against her will to the King of France. Later, still a beautiful woman, she married her brother's friend, Charles Brandon, bearing him four children before dying while she still young.
The remarkable true story of the discovery and excavation of the Tudor warship Mary Rose. Ideal for readers of David Childs, Brian Lavery and Douglas McElvogue, and everyone interested in British naval history. In October 1982, Henry VIII's flagship Mary Rose finally broke the surface off the coast of Portsmouth after more than 400 years on the seabed.

The story of Henry VIII's sister Mary Rose, the beautiful princess who married first the King of France and then the great rake of the Tudor era, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk.
Henry Rose Lee started coaching on the school bus at the age of 12 when she discovered one of her friends in tears over the recent death of her mother. When everyone else was too embarrassed to talk to this girl, Henry Rose simply took her hand and sat and listened. Together the two children grieved and giggled, plotted and planned to make their adolescent goals and dreams come true. But it was a decade or two before Henry Rose became a professional coach. In 2014, one of her C-suite coaching clients was struggling to succeed in a new post and she realised that all those books about leadership didn't cover those first critical days when it's 'make or break'. Her book offers a code of conduct for new leaders so that they can be effective in role as quickly as possible and not take 90 days.
