Froude's History of England is a book written by Charles Kingsley that provides a comprehensive account of the history of England from the reign of Henry VIII to the end of the Elizabethan era. The book is based on the works of James Anthony Froude, a 19th-century historian who was known for his controversial views on the Tudor period. Kingsley's book is divided into six volumes, each of which covers a specific period in English history. The first volume covers the reign of Henry VIII and the English Reformation, while the second volume focuses on the reign of Edward VI and the rise of Protestantism in England. The third volume covers the reign of Mary I and the Catholic restoration, while the fourth volume covers the reign of Elizabeth I and the rise of England as a world power. The fifth volume covers the Stuart period, including the English Civil War and the restoration of the monarchy, while the sixth volume covers the reign of William III and the Glorious Revolution. Throughout the book, Kingsley provides a detailed and engaging narrative of the major events and personalities that shaped England's history, including the Tudor monarchs, the Puritans, and the Cavaliers. Overall, Froude's History of England is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of England and the Tudor period in particular.But it is more than unwise to boast and rejoice that the former times were worse than these; and to teach young people to say in their hearts, 'What clever fellows we are, compared with our stupid old fogies of fathers!' More than unwise; for possibly it may be false in fact. To look at the political and moral state of Europe at this moment, Christendom can hardly afford to look down on any preceding century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
