		On July 12, 1543, at Hampton Court Palace, Katharine Parr and Henry VIII were married when the king was about 52 years old; Parr was 20 years his younger, and was the only wife to outlive Henry.

		Parr often used her favor with the king in order to persuade him to continue the zealous reformation of the church.

	Reading, Raving, and Ranting from a Historical Fiction Writer: Not Up to Parr
		This just isn't Katherine Parr's month, at least for me. After reading (or skimming) Her Royal Destiny, which did have the courtesy to advertise itself unashamedly as a bodice-ripper, I bought Carolly Erickson's second historical novel, The Last Wife of Henry VIII, this weekend.
		Her characterizations are strong--I especially liked those of Katherine's wise-cracking brother and of her sweet-natured, bumbling second husband--and the novel's a page-turner.
		Trouble is, with both Marie Antoinette and Katherine Parr, the real details of their lives are so interesting one hardly needs to invent things.

		I read "Katherine" when I was younger and liked it a lot, so it'll be interesting to read about the real woman.
		This is the first thing I have read about Katherine Parr and she certainly sounds like an interesting person with a very diverse life.
