I know that Cambridge recently came into possession of Tudor Era state papers, they put them up online somewhere, I can’t seem to find them! Does anyone know the website? Or even what they are called? i have access to the Cambridge library, but I haven’t been able to locate the collection…help please!

Hi Stephen,
I’ve listed a load of old books, mainly 19th century, on Anne Boleyn at http://www.theanneboleynfiles.com/resources/books/anne-boleyn-books/other-anne-boleyn-books/ and if you click on the titles you can read them online. There is also Agnes Strickland’s “The Queens of England” Volume I which can be read online at http://www.archive.org/stream/agnesstricklands01striiala#page/n5/mode/2up. I hope that helps you.

Im currently researching an essay on the ‘changing’ reputation of anne over the years and i was wondering if anyone could reccomend any 17th 18th or 19th century sources or the best place to find them? Im already using the letters and papers and have books and media sources for current opinions, but need some more sources to add depth to my essay. Any help would be amazing!!

One thing I’d reccomend- spend at least a week in London-
you will need it. I’ve been to London four times and I still
haven’t got everything done, so spend as much time in London as you
can. My personal favorite is Westminster Abbey, it is truly
beautiful. It needs a day. I doubt you’ll need a guide, most of
them have audio guides and leaflets free too. Hope you enjoy, it’s
all great fun!

I have a question that you may – or may not- be able to help me with. I am dreaming of a trip to Britain and Ireland…a historical trip. I want something that’s at least two weeks – maybe more. I am hoping that, after my second back surgery this year I will be able to walk again and enjoy myself. Of course I would love the now full for 2011 Executed Queens tour – but can anyone suggest a good place for travel/tour information? I will most likely be traveling alone and am – or used to be – fairly adroit at traveling so, although some tours can be most informative. I don;t think I need a totally hosted tour. I am dreaming right now .. but it helps me with my back issues to dream and start planning! If you have suggestions – wonderful – but if you don;t I understand too. Thanks!
