The Last Wife of Henry VIII by Carolly Erickson is a fast paced book of Catherine Parr's life, from her childhood to her death. She married 4 times which I'm sure was a lot for someone of those times, including of course, Henry VIII. This book gives the reader a glimpse of the final days of Henry and what can only be described as his complete madness. I would also have to say that I think she is my favourite of all Henry wives.
I would recommend this book if you are well read in the lives of the Tudors. Definitely a great little book!
