Happy New Year everyone! I would love to say that 2026 will be the year that I get back into seriously working on this site and getting my Tudor history groove back, but who knows if that will turn out to be the case. If nothing else, I’d like to finish fixing a bunch of the old posts that got scrambled when my webhost migrated a couple of years ago. That’s quite the chore, but I really need to get it done.
In the meantime, here is the round-up of new books for the new year!
Books
Holbein: Renaissance Master by Elizabeth Goldring, which came out a couple of months ago in the UK, is now out in the US.
And a book that got past me in November, Edward IV’s Fatal Legacy: The Restoration and Ruin of the Courtenays 1479-1558 by Hazel Pierce, will be out in the US at the end of January.
And in new books – Lost Heirs of the Tudor Crown by Neha Roy will be out at the end of January in the UK and will be released in March in the US.
Events
Peterborough Cathedral’s annual Katharine of Aragon Festival starts on January 21 and runs through February 1. There are LOTS of activities with this year’s Festival, including online events. Click the image or links above ot learn more!
