Urgent - history as

I just need one source that says Henry VII (7th) was a good king in one way or another.
Please help

Hey Darksideday, I recently brought a book about Catherine of Aragon (Henry VII's daughter-in-law) I think you may find a few bits and pieces in here. I do know that it mentions in the book how managing to betrothe his heir to the princess was an important and good move, creating good relations with Spain and therefore keeping England even more secure as both England and Spain (Or at that time Catille & Aragon) shared a mutual enemy...France. So you could delve into how the relationship he developed between the two countries benefitted his kingdom.

I hope this helps!!
The book is: 'Catherine of Aragon' by Giles Tremlett

Not to mention Henry VII came to rule after the war of the roses I believe which was a pretty devestating civil war....you could comment on his accension bringing stability back to the country etc etc...

Goodluck with your research :smile:
