	Vallieres. Tudor Succession Problems.
		The Tudor dynasty was plagued by poor health, short-lives and a shortage of male claimants to the throne.
		While the Tudor period is generally viewed as a one of stability, the recurring succession difficulties created instability and often posed the threat of civil war and even foreign invasion.
		The succession problems of the Tudor monarchs were largely caused by their lack of issue, for none of Henry VIII's children had children, poor health and were complicated by plots arising from the uncertainty of the succession, foreign affairs, and the wishes of the monarchs of the periods in relation to Henry VIII's will.

		Due to the patriarchal quality of Tudor society, it is not possible to divorce the ladies entirely from the overshadowing men of the time, but Plowden makes an honest attempt here by giving us a satiny ride on the rollercoaster that was the life of the melodramatic women of the Tudor dynasty.
		Tudor Women begins by discussing Margaret Beaufort, an indomitable, pious, and resourceful woman who maneuvered her son into a position to become the first Tudor king of England.
		A final chapter on Tudor women in general, including their lives and place in society, is enlightening and as well-written as anything in the book.

	Owen Tudor
		Owen (or Owain) Tudor (~1400-1461) was a Welsh soldier and courtier, directly descended from The Lord Rhys but remembered only because of his role in founding the Tudor dynasty and for his relationship with Katherine of Valois, widow of King Henry V of England.
		He was assigned to her service after the king's death, when Katherine, being French and therefore distrusted, was removed from court and denied any part in the upbringing of her son, the infant King Henry VI.
		She and Owen are sometimes said to have been secretly married, though there is no documentary evidence of this.
