The Privy Council Under The Tudors, written by Eustace Percy and published in 1907, is a historical account of the Privy Council during the Tudor period in England. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the role and function of the Privy Council, which was a group of advisors to the monarch that played a crucial role in the governance of England during this time. The book covers the reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I, and examines the various political and social issues that the Privy Council dealt with during each reign. These issues include the Reformation, foreign policy, the succession, and the relationship between the monarch and their advisors. Percy draws on a wide range of primary sources, including council minutes, state papers, and contemporary accounts, to provide a detailed and nuanced picture of the Privy Council's workings. He also provides biographical sketches of key council members, such as Thomas Cromwell, William Cecil, and Robert Dudley, and explores their individual contributions to the council's work. Overall, The Privy Council Under The Tudors is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Tudor history, political history, or the workings of government in early modern England. It offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important institutions of Tudor England, and sheds light on the complex and often turbulent politics of the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
