SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book provides a thematic survey of England's international relations during the sixteenth century and explores the various influences on policy-making, including the concept of honour, security concerns, religious ideology and commercial interests. This book is ideal for undergraduates as it provides an extensive and coherent synthesis of recent scholarship as well as a fresh insight into Tudor foreign policy.
