I've been reading Tudors (The History of England) as part of my BSc in Tudor History and Peter Ackroyd's insight fascinates me so much that I can't wait to pick it up every day. The author has written a vibrant history which truly brings its characters to life. The book is a gift from my aunt and guardian, it is a real tableau of life in the Elizabethan court with intrigue, love affairs and of course, politics. It's full of facts and anecdotes, but has never bored me.
I'm using my online degree course as part of my every day self care.
