Viewing history as a grand drama, Froude emphasized great personalities and disdained the scientific approach in his historical writing. This epic, twelve-volume narrative presents a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era. The fourth volume begins with a discussion of Scotland and Ireland and their rivalries with one another and with England. It closes with an analysis of the life and reign of Henry the Eighth.
