Anne Boleyn's Letter from the Tower: A New Assessment

â€œSir, Your Grace's Displeasure and my Imprisonment are Things so strange unto me, as what to Write, or what to Excuse, I am altogether ignorant.â€

Thus opens a burned fragment of a letter dated 6 May 1536 and signed â€œAnne Boleynâ€, a letter in which the imprisoned queen fervently proclaims her innocence to her husband, King Henry VIII.

This letter "from the Lady in the Towerâ€ has divided historians in recent years, with some dismissing it as a fake. There has been no definitive study of the letter or its mysterious provenance... until now. In Anne Boleyn's Letter from the Tower, Sandra Vasoli provides an in-depth investigation of the individuals who may well have kept the letter safe for nearly 500 years, from author to its present home in the British Library.

- Did Anne Boleyn actually compose the letter from the Tower?
- Did Henry VIII regret his final tragic actions against Anne Boleyn?

Sandra Vasoli unravels the mysteries of this letter and also reveals a startling comment found buried in an age-old document which gives us a cryptic clue into Henry VIII's anguish over his second wife. The culmination of this research may well alter the accepted view of Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII's doomed marriageâ€¦
